This painting was created by all three members of Bonanza painting alongside each other at once and is loosely inspired by Laura Dern's performance in the film "Jurassic Park".

Bonanza is the collaborative practice of Conrad Guevara, Lindsay Tully, and Lana Williams. Their work draws upon the artists' respective experiences as a filmmaker, sculptor, and painter and centers around issues of identity and authorship. Bonanza's diverse projects have included installation, film, and fashion. The artists regularly employ abstraction, performance, and humor, often using their projects as a platform for others. Bonanza’s work has been exhibited at the Buffalo Institute of Contemporary Art, Gallery 16, Minnesota Street Project, Interface Gallery, Southern Exposure and The di Rosa Center for Contemporary Art. The artists have produced several films, including their first film, The Initiation, a horror film that satirizes the rise of big tech in San Francisco and The Drought which investigates the effects (real and imagined) of the water crisis. They were recent Artists in Residence at San Francisco Recology and are currently working on a new film about a uber service for dogs.
