Bonnie Rollins began working with pastels when she came to Florida. As seen in "Market Day," her style sometimes takes on a primitive and colorful style.

"Storm Over the Lake" illustrates her use of intense, saturated color. Her work defies a single label and her style varies, depending on the subject.

In "50s Lady in Swimsuit," Bonnie Rollins captures the simple gestures that give her work life and motion. She works in pastels, watercolors and other media.
As a yoga instructor, Bonnie Rollins is a flexible artist, but not just in the physical sense. Her creative style embraces many techniques and modes. While some artists develop a singular style and don’t vary much from that look — so that all their work tends to look the same — Bonnie’s ability to create in differing styles sets her apart. But she also feels her yoga practice help her find the peace of mind needed to open her creativity.
Bonnie’s talents are as diverse as her style; she is as comfortable working with pastels as watercolors.
