Bedonna has been involved in the arts her entire life. After attending Eastern Michigan University and Western Washington State University, she moved to the Bay Area where she worked in experimental theatre and conceptual art with the Odyssey Company and the San Francisco Museum of Art. In 1979, she moved to Europe and continued her work in Spain, Germany, France and England. She returned to the U.S.A. in September 2001 and now lives in New Orleans where she “keeps her finger to the pulse of the city” while she shows and sells her work on Royal Street/Orleans Street (behind St Louis Cathedral) as one of the famous Pirate Alley Artists.

Bedonna has captured on canvas a feeling of Musicians like no one else!

Her acrylic on canvas pop-art works are painted using ‘light’ in the composition of each piece. Her technique of using overlays of acrylic, along with her detailed and creative brush stokes have produced an excitingly surprising effect depending how the paintings are illuminated.

There is movement and feeling in each painting which come to life with her master style!
