HIDDEN SECRETSBONNIE MARRIS

“My paintings are private moments with the untamed, an inti-mate moment with the elusive side of the wilderness,” relatesBonnie Marris. “If connections between two people beginwith the eyes, I think that when you are introducing people towildlife, you should begin in the same way, with the eyes.“I think about our history with wolves and how much,

throughout history, we feared them. It seems we are nowattempting to understand them rather than fear them.Wolvesare so secretive. It’s taken a long time to realize that they sharemany traits with us. If you think about how family oriented thepack is, it’s amazing. Family is family and we share that socialnature.“We are so busy and so rushed, a painting is a way to stop

and spend a few moments discovering something new aboutthe world in which we live. In the end, it gives us the chanceto discover something new about ourselves as well.”

CROSSING THE BIG SANDYBONNIE MARRIS

Texas longhorn cattle were almost extinct by the 1920s sincemodern day ranchers preferred a breed that could fatten upquickly and they no longer valued the longhorn’s ability to sur-vive in high heat on little water, but lots of cactus, weeds andbrush. Beginning in the 1930s, they were protected and bred insmall stocks, mostly out of the idea of the romance of the OldWest but later longhorns became popular for their lean, lower-cholesterol meat. Commercial ranchers now breed them withother cattle for their many strong traits including smarts andeasy calving.Artist Bonnie Marris had the opportunity to drivethese cattle across the river. “They are so wild, as in undomes-ticated,” she said.“When you stand 20 feet away from one youfeel like you are peering back into history, seeing what cattlewere like before we got our hands on them.” They’re beautiful,intelligent and lean. Sounds like a breed apart.

TESTING THEWATERSBonnie Marris

Wildlife artist Bonnie Marris is exuberant about herfavorite subjects: wolves, horses and bears but just aboutany wildlife subject portrayed with their young is themost exciting of all. Marris took what became, for her,an historic research trip toYellowstone National Park lastyear because she was lucky enough to witness an unusu-al number of bear and their young. Stationed near one ofthe only fast-running rivers in the Park,Marris observedthe mother bring her babies down to see water for the firsttime. A ferocious and dangerous mammal, this motherbear treated her cubs with gentle patience and care.

SPLASHBONNIE MARRIS

With thundering hooves, flashing eyes and pounding hearts,Bonnie Marris’ horses represent all that is truly wild in greatwildlife art.Their exhilaration is contagious and their spirit trulyindomitable, as Marris’ skill with the brush and empathy with theanimal soul brings their joyous freedom to life.Each morning, as the sunlight rolls over the mountains, these

three horses stretch their muscles and begin their travel across thecountryside.Today’s leg of the journey begins with a refreshingsplash through an ice-cold stream, fresh from the mountaintop.Asthe water leaps into the air around their knees, the exuberant ani-mals will take different paths over the uneven bottom of the creekbed, but by sunset they will find one another again. By the timethe last star has appeared in the evening sky the family will be safeat rest, gathering strength for the next day’s run.

I wanted people to see this side, the side thatkeeps a pack or family of wolves strong and tight.They’renot much different from our own families on a summerafternoon.There is devotion and interest in the children’sactivities, tender touches, tough play and a sharing of thepups.This is a peaceful afternoon, where the only thingsdisturbing the wolves are the constant clucks and cacklesof the crows and the buzzing of mosquitoes around theirears.This is a place where the slow moving of shadowslulls us into sweet naps and dreams.”

“I did all the right things! I picked a fabulous stallionwith a great disposition to be her sire and I read all thebooks. In May, we delivered a beautiful little filly. Iworked with her every day, teaching her leading,bathing, grooming, tying and not to kick or nip. Shewas the perfect foal….Then, one morning, I woke upto the ‘terrible twos.’ Suddenly she argued! She threwtantrums! She bucked, she ran, she whinnied for meto leave, then not to leave. She threw her brushes,dumped her grain, splashed water on me, stomped herfeet, shook her head.Was it my fault? Not enough teach-ing? Too much?”

“She’s three now.Whew…she’s perfect again!”

The spontaneity and excitement that comesfrom a horse is spectacular to watch. But it’s always achallenge to give a painting a sense of movement.These geldings have such a rhythm that against theblurred lighting of the background they appear to sailthrough the canvas.The delicacy and masculinity cre-ates a harmony between the two horses, their enthusi-asm and energy bounce off one another.
