It wasn’t until 2000, that her passion for drawing was rekindled once again. While substitute teaching in a high school art class, she was exposed to Prisma colored pencils. She was excited not only to find a medium that required no clean up, smell or drying time but one that allowed her to accomplish the detail she so readily desired. Thus her journey into the world of colored pencils began in earnest.

Lynn’s art is characterized by her never ending fascination with the details in the world around her. Her drawing technique employs multiple layers of pigment, until the entire paper is covered. During this 300+ hour process, her passion for detail, realism and vibrant color begin to emerge. She seeks to capture the very essence of God’s creation through those special moments in life surrounding family, society and nature. In His honor, she adds a small cross somewhere in each drawing. When people are viewing her drawings, they often exclaim, “That’s colored pencil? It looks like a photograph!”
