“This drawing is inspired by the beautiful overgrown flower beds at the end of summer at Westbury Court Gardens near the river Severn . I loved the shapes of the different plants . I love sepia photography and I was aiming to try and recapture the look of an old photograph, so I drew on lovely Pastelmat paper so the image wasn’t too sharp”
Lynda was born in Sunderland in 1970, settling in Monmouth in the early 1980’s, where she has lived ever since. She studied Art Foundation at Newport College of Art & Design, followed by a degree in Visual Art at The University of Wales, Aberystwyth.
She worked for a number of years in a non art related business, always painting in her spare time. In 2007 she finally gave up her day job and started painting full time.
Her canvases are mostly depictions of landscapes in the Monmouth area – the final image often bears little relation to the original subject but all have a common starting point – the memory of a place she knows well.
