"Nothing beats the excitement of a newborn," says the artist, J. Bonegard, equating the birth of each artwork of the Genius series to the arrival of a newly born baby to a family. Asked to explain this further, the artist goes on to say, "in every newborn, there is a live magic, and the miracle of life at its infancy. So, it is with the artwork in this series, where each piece is birth from the instrument of creativity, and serving as a foundation for the next piece. In essence, each artwork takes a life of its own, while at the same time, it births another. This artwork, Genius #102 is part of the Genius series, a line of works that blend the abstraction of the #F-Arts series, with the geometry of J. Bonegard inspiration.

Works of arts, in their possessiveness, are often associated with fortune, but what about the fortune that the mere observation of a work of art may bestow on the viewer? These were the thoughts associated with the origin of the F-Art series, or as explained by the artist, Fortune-Art series. Pioneered by the artist, F-Art is a unique variant of abstract art where the imagery is worked and explored for its alchemist influences. Not distant from the artist's fascination with lines and angles of geometric art, numbers are an integral part of Fortune-Art. With the limitless possibilities of the works that constitute this series, the scope of work of the artist takes a broader course, allowing the artist the luxury of spontaneity and randomness that gives life to an artwork. According to the artist, in what is revealed, the images of the F-Art series has the potential to invite fortune into the lives of the beholders.
