Lynn James: Sunset to Moonrise

Artist Statement:

I began my artist journey in earnest about 14 years ago. First exploring watercolors and acrylics, I settled on my love of pastels. I enjoy their bold, immediate combination of drawing and painting. Still wanting to explore other mediums, I later learned the joys of luminous oil painting as well. After many hours and years of art classes, including at ACAC, I feel I have begun to grow into an artist ready to share my visions and travels with others.

My show is entitled “Sunset to Moonrise” because over the past year and a half since my last art show, I have found these glorious moments in time called to me. This wasn’t an intentional goal to paint so many sunsets and moonrises, but because I love to photograph my travels and paint outdoors, it came to be. From our glorious national parks to fabulous fields closer to home, I hope you find something to inspire you.
