The Pink Panther paintings were inspired by a trip to Hawaii with her son. “He was watching The Pink Panther when we were staying in a pink hotel where everything was pink… pink towels, bedspreads, and pancakes… and I thought, ‘Wow, I’m gonna make pink-on-pink paintings of The Pink Panther.’” As well as travel, Bernhardt says she takes inspiration from “’80s design, architecture, things my son is into.”
