About the Artist
I have been painting now for over 20 years and am still learning.
Botanical Art was my first love but now I enjoy new challenges.
I apply all my knowledge of different media and techniques to new subjects.
Pet portraits bring a lot of happiness to people and I enjoy using pastel pencils, capturing their soul first with the eyes.
I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others and watching their skills improve and their awareness of their surroundings become second nature.
Art has become an essential part of my life and brings me great joy.
Follow Lynda on Facebook and shop with her on Redbubble and Vida.
