If Mrs. Bowlin had the same number of pieces of each color, this means that the total number of pieces of construction paper is divisible by 4 since she had 4 colors.
Let the number of pieces of each color be x.
Since she had 4 colors, the total number of pieces of construction paper is 4*x.
This means 4*x is divisible by 4 which means x is divisible by 4.
The smallest possible value of x is when x=4, since it is the smallest number divisible by 4.
Therefore, Mrs. Bowlin had 4 pieces of each color of construction paper. Answer: \boxed{4}.
