After more than two years of many thoughts and ideas – this painting is complete and I am ready to show it for the first time!  Living Today is my sequel to

Living Life.  I have created this painting based on my own personal desire to try and live each day this way. I believe this image will mean something different to everyone as we each walk through life leaving a unique footprint.  My hope is that Living Today will be an inspiration to help you get the very best living from each day of your life!  Living Today will be heading for press within the next month.

“Living Today”

Today is a gift.  Embrace it with joy and anticipation…realize the possibilities. It beckons you towards your destination in life. Be at peace – you are exactly where you are meant to be at this moment. God has carefully chosen the people, events, joys and challenges on your path today. The things you will encounter are stepping stones of what is to come.  Make the most of today. Focus on “the present” – you will see and appreciate things you might otherwise miss. Follow your heart – search to find your purpose in life and you will find meaning and happiness. Use your talents, do your best, contribute.  Make a difference, because you can. Be passionate about your journey – sing, dance, laugh, and love as you go.  Give praise and allow time for prayer. The promise of tomorrow begins with the endeavors of today.  Do not let the fast-forward pace of the world deprive you from savoring “the now”.  Seek things that fill you with love and bring you joy. Have faith, it fosters hope – it makes the difference.  Believe, with God all things are possible. Live well – live today, for it is a gift.

Since beginning her journey of canvas, brush and pigment in 1988, rural American artist Bonnie Mohr’s art has grown into a breadth of work that touches every aspect of the look, the language and the sentiments of rural America.  She and husband John raise their five children on a dairy farm near Glencoe, Minnesota, where she balances a busy family, a business and her heart’s desire to create artwork that captures the heritage and lifestyle that she loves.

Bonnie has earned her well-deserved reputation as one of America’s most eminent painters of rural America and the domestic animal.  Mohr’s self-taught artistic skills blend realism with an innate sense of color and design, making each original a classic work of art.

Bonnie has been filmed for national TV Shows, including US Farm Report with Orion Samuelson and her most recent segment on PBS TV’s “America’s Heartland”.

Bonnie Mohr is just a farm girl who packs an enormous love for painting her passions – straight from the heart.  “Through my work, I hope you will feel a sense of inspiration, find special meaning in ordinary day-to-day events, and sense a connection to rural America”.
