I am filled with gratitude as I share my first published magazine feature! A HUGE thank you to Orlando Voyager Magazine for this incredible opportunity, inviting me to their platform to share my story and showcase my art in their December issue! My heart is overflowing and I thank all of my art collector family and friends around the world- past, present and yet to come for this incredible journey! Peace and love!
Born and raised on Long Island, NY, arts of all mediums influenced Lynn from an early age. Vacationing in the Adirondack Mountains in upstate NY, Lynn would often be found tucked away cliff side near a flowing waterfall, sitting silent on a lakeside dock, or out watching the misty sunrise from the middle of a placid morning lake in a canoe. This is where she fell in love with the peace, serenity and beauty of nature. It was there that she would write pages of poetry and create her first ever acrylic paintings.
She studied drawing and Illustration while on Long Island and then again after relocating to Orlando, Florida, becoming well disciplined in pen and ink, on-location drawing as well as creating her new ‘Painted Mâché’ collage work. While raising her family, she also started and ran a successful home business hand painting customized porcelain plates and drinkware that shipped worldwide. She developed and taught a fine arts curriculum for home-schooled children and during this time she also enjoyed the success of her first published book cover.
Lynn desired to return to her love of fine arts and wanted to learn more. She studied stained glass and became self taught in mosaics. She began teaching again and also emerged full force with her ‘Painted Mâché’ works of art. Her art has been jury selected into “CREATIVA-Woman Made Art Show” at the Osceola Center for the Arts and she has been a consistent jury selected participant in the the 1st Thursdays events at the Orlando Museum of Art as well as City Arts, Orlando. Lynn has participated in the Visual Arts portion of the highly acclaimed Orlando Fringe Festival. Most recently, Lynn’s artwork “Against the Odds” was selected to be part of the Copelouzos Art Museums’ permanent collection in Athens, Greece.
“Creating fine art, whether original collage art, line drawings or mosaic design, has become a transcendent journey of gratitude for me. I am in awe, humbled, inspired and enlightened by the circle of life and death I’ve experienced thus far. Whether beautiful, jaw dropping creations on this Earth, the limitless wonders of the universe or the love and pain we all bear within, I am called to create. I utilize a technique I call ‘Painted Mâché’ to give a visual voice to my inspiration. I have found deep satisfaction with this language, committing to the vision of each work through bold statements and decision making with each final cut.”
