BONALY
Hello,
I'm Bonaly,
The artist behind the paintings.
Thank you for exploring all of my art.
I continuously fall in love with the world and I chose art as a way to capture it. Life is wonderful with all of its layers, symbols and meanings.​​
​
I am a self-taught artist (Costa Rican and African-American descent).
My creations are subtle acts of awareness—inviting you to look closer, feel deeper, and uncover meaning beneath the pretty surface.​​​
Guided by culture, personal experience, and spirituality, I weave social documentation into minimal compositions—where softness meets truth. What began as a childhood love, reignited through the profound loss of my only brother, became a practice of translating the world around me into something others can understand.​
Art,
for me,
is more than just an image—it is an experience. It’s a practice of translating the world around me into something others can feel and understand.
My paintings are a balance of whimsy and depth, minimalism and boldness, with unconventional forms and striking colors. Each piece carries an unspoken narrative that challenges perspectives and evokes curiosity. I invite viewers to look closer, feel deeper, and uncover meaning beneath the surface.
​​
To God be the glory, and so it is, thank you, enjoy 🌹
