"Seagull Feather"  8" x 8" Framed, wathercolor & pastel 

Nature Studies, and the ‘Floating Scatter-paintings’

At first glance the ‘scatter-paintings’ are still-life studies of natural objects floating in non-specific space. But each of the finely rendered objects - feathers, pebbles, sea-shells - becomes a symbol or an ‘essence’ of its wholeness – the single feather brings to awareness the seagull, or the pottery shard from archeological site suggests an ancient utility vessel, the shells evoke the ocean shoreline...  

The objects are floating in a non-defined space, sometimes described by archetypal geometric elements, that is reminiscent of a subtle level of awareness where the essences of thoughts, dreams and prayers are lively.

“Underlying everything in creation is universal Being. The process of creating a drawing or painting becomes a vibrant quest to manifest that ‘inner light’ on the paper or canvas. My creative intention is to express the unity between the radiant inner light inherent in all things and the lively outer form - to enliven the link between these two worlds of reality.”

Born in South Africa, Lynne taught drawing and painting in her Johannesburg art studio from 1980 to 1990, produced commissioned artwork, and exhibited her work in various cities in S.A. In 1990 she moved to the U.S. and, after completing a Master’s Degree in Art, continued her artwork and teaching (perception training & drawing techniques) in her studio in Iowa. In 1999 she moved to the Blue Ridge mountains in North Carolina.

Skill and confidence in drawing is the basis of all her work, creating a strong sense of form, evident in her portraits, botanical drawings, murals and landscape paintings, but most dynamically in the portraits of dancers and performers.

Working with performers in South Africa and in the U.S., she draws and photographs rehearsals, translating the images into drawings and etchings. She has created theatre portraits of dancers from the State Theatre Ballet Company (P.A.C.T. Ballet) in Pretoria, S.A., The Washington Ballet Company in Washington, D.C., Dance Theatre of Iowa, and Sylvia Glasser's "Moving into Dance" Company (Johannesburg, S.A.) as well as portraits of independent dancers and performers.

Her paintings and drawings are in collections in South Africa, England, Australia, Canada and in the U.S.


Chip & Scribble Fine Art Studio is nestled in the woods of the Blue Ridge mountains. The studio was built according to the ancient principles of Maharishi Sthapatyaveda - the science of building structures in accord with natural law to promote peace, harmony, health, happiness and prosperity.   www.chipandscribble.com
