My name is Bonnie Lee Butler, I am a tropical artist that has resided in Florida since September 2000. I previous resided in Northern Illinois. I was born in Waukegan, Illinois, on January 15, 1955. Since moving to Florida I have had the great privilege of being mentored for eight years by Highwaymen artist Robert L. Lewis Jr. Through this exciting experience, I have become a Florida artist growing in my own right. My motto as an artist is "I Paint my own vision!" Has I started painting as a child in Illinois with my mother (Sandra Rogers). My goal is to retain the beauty of my now home state of Florida through my own original oil paintings. I also will be featured, along with my paintings, with Mr. Lewis in the up coming addition of a local newspaper, the Viera Voice (Senior News located in Viera, Florida.Bonnierogersleebutler (talk) 07:21, 3 March 2016 (UTC) (release date March 2016)Bonnierogersleebutler (talk) 02:19, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
