Approx. measures 7" x 1/2" x 9" (in frame) An abstract painter, Bodnar relies on simply described elements like strong lines, solid, vivid colors, stylized script, and rudimentary but evocative shapes to create fanciful and unpredictable imagery. Born in Czechoslovakia on November 27, 1928, he came to Detroit, Michigan with his mother in 1929, where his father worked in the auto industry. The family moved to a farm in Mt. Morris, Michigan, where he grew up. His talent for art was apparent early on and supported by his teachers. Bodnar majored in art at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, and graduated in 1951 with a B.A. degree.
