Cassandra Bohne-Linnard (Bohne-L) is a native Houstonian who has been painting oils & acrylics for over 25 years. After creating “Freedom” an abstract oil painting of a blue butterfly, she was captivated by the natural beauty of butterflies and inspired to create art using real, preserved butterflies. A collection of Cassandra’s butterfly cloches and patent pending luxury clocks made with real preserved butterflies are sold at the world renowned Houston Museum of Natural Science. Her clocks have been featured in the auctions at the galas of prestigious organizations such as the Houston Grand Opera, Houston Museum of Natural Science and the Alzheimer’s Association. Her clocks are on permanent exhibit at Bisong Art Gallery and Impulse Art Gallery.
After working with real butterflies Cassandra’s paintings evolved to become colorful contemporary abstracts founded in aspects of the natural world, focusing heavily on powerful representations of exotic and otherworldly plants, majestic trees, and images of moons.
