Angela Bond was born in Lakeland, Florida and moved around quite a bit as a child. One of the most interesting places she lived was Nigeria, Africa. After living in Africa for four years and a short stay in Europe, she relocated back to the United States with her family and eventually came to Atlanta.

Bond studied art and business at Georgia State University, but her unorthodox style came about on its own. Her painting style came about by working with mosaics. She uses the background color as a negative to build up the foreground positively in order to create a three dimensional form. It is as if she has taken the negative of a photograph and reversed it on canvas with complementary colors to create an image that is uniquely her own.

As Bond's style has evolved, there has become a strong influence by Pop Art and Fauvism. The influence of Pop Art is seen instantly in her graphic style and her use of everyday, ordinary creatures. You can see Fauvism's influence with the large plains of bold color that she uses and the reduction of colors to a minimum. As Matisse, the leader of Fauvism, used color as an independent structural element and derived lasting benefit from Fauvism's dedication to saturated color, Bond is continually enlightened by his life's work.

Having many muses, she has come to paint a wide range of subjects. The series that she recently worked on was African animals. She always goes back to her favorite subjects though----domestic cats and dogs. Although she usually paints her own furry companions, she is often commissioned to do pet portraits.
