Hello to all of you in Italy! Although I have been to your country only one time, I am in love with its great beauty.
In my art, I am drawn to abstract subjects conveying ambiguity and mystery, more than to recognizable scenes. To me, it’s more fun to see ‘what is not’ than to see ‘what is.’ I can see what is, every day of my life, and the camera captures it well. My paintings are abstract and celebrate the joy of form and color, while my photos are realistic and celebrate the beauties of the world. You can see more of my work at www.lyndalehmann.com.
NEWS: I will be having a large solo show of abstract paintings at the Alfred Van Loen Gallery in South Huntington, New York, in February, 2008...I have an image accepted into "The Art of Digital Imagery," the Center for Fine Art Photography show in Fort Collins, CO, in June, 2007. Only 50 photographers out of 300 had their work accepted. The show will also be online at the C4FAP website, which I will post...I have four paintings in Art Addiction's Medial 2. Art Biennial online show, and will post the link when the exhibit is posted...The jury of the FLORENCE BIENNALE has invited me to show my work at the December, 2007 event in Florence...Don Archer of MOCA has posted some of my images in a Guest Gallery. The Museum of Computer Art is "a nonprofit educational corporation chartered by the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York," and is one of the most respected computer art museums on the Web...Read what Chris Dunmire, publisher of "Creativity Portal," has to say about my art and writing, on my "About" page at lyndalehmann.com...You can read my thoughts on the creative process in articles at Creativity Portal. Links to these and to my other sites are on my page at www.lyndalehmann.com...My article "Art and Power?rel=nofollow" was also published in a catalogue for a large art exhibition in India, as well as at the Painter's Keys website...You can see some of my work and the work of other WWAO artists at the award-winning Phoophie Tales website, a delightful site designed by KC Bauder, with scary stories and games for children.
Being involved in creative process has helped me to say "yes" to life. As a human being, I feel all the ageless and timeless doubts of the human condition. I feel doubts about the course of human events, the paths of governments and nations. I feel doubts about religion and doubts about Western medicine. Doubts about the nature of just about everything, including and not least, my own creativity.
But there's one thing I know for certain: doing art lifts me above doubt and despair and gives me indescribable joy. In my own creativity and in other's works, as well, I feel I see glimpses of something wonderful: it's what I like to think of as "the infinite potential of the universe." It manifests in little ways, in all of us! Especially when we create....
So regardless of the course my artistic journey may take, and regardless of whether my body of work will be judged to have some intrinsic meaning for one or more people, or perhaps none beyond my own subjectivity, I am deeply moved by and grateful for the experience of making art!
I worked as a commercial artist before pursuing painting at the Art League of Long Island. Writing four middle-grade and young adult mainstream novels with Gaia and feminist themes, and a number of stories in a sociological science fiction genre, was a special journey for me. I have shown my visual art in numerous juried and solo shows in the New York area, but it has only been during the past two years that I have had time to pursue my art with dedication.
My 25-page gallery on my primary website. www.lyndalehmann.com, features abstract paintings and digital art, in which I celebrate imagination. These are followed by digital photography, in which I celebrate "the ubiqitous beauties of the world." Look for my graphic "Urban Wallpaper" series and my "Abstract Impressionism" pieces, which reveal the effect of light on the patterns and textures of nature. My short articles, including "Art and Power" and "Art and Beauty," are available at Creativity Portal and on my Absolute Arts Blog--the links are on my site. Here's what Chris Dunmire, publisher of Creativity Portal, has to say about my art and writing: "I personally have been so moved by the depth of Lynda's writings that I would encourage anyone who is seeking a more spiritual perspective on art and creativity to read them. She truly has a wonderful way of expressing her artistic nature not only through her paintings, but as well, through her words.?rel=nofollow"
