Hinterglas Art Studio & Gallery is home to fine artist Bonnie Bews.

Bonnie seeks her inspiration from Cape Breton’s wildlife and natural surroundings. Her paintings are energized not only with ideas but also by the way she applies her medium to the glass.

Original artwork is available to purchase as well as greeting cards, prints, canvas prints and illustrated Children’s books.
