After receiving her Diploma in Fine Arts from Okanagan College in 1985, Lynn took on various artistic occupations such as airbrush artist, sign painter and custom framer. After moving to Prince Rupert she pursued a full-time career in art. She has exhibited at Two Rivers Gallery in Prince George, Island Mountain Arts in Wells, the Smithers Art Gallery, the Terrace Art Gallery, and the Ruth Harvey Art Gallery at the Museum of Northern BC in Prince Rupert, where her work is held in permanent collection. She is a member of The Fantastic 5point0 Artist Collective and sits on the board of the Prince Rupert Community Arts Council.
Lynn’s work involves themes of connection and the meaning we attach to the places we inhabit. Utilizing minimalist realism and experimenting with the contrast between light and dark, exposed and hidden, she communicates subtle truths about grand places.
Lynn teaches art lessons and workshops while continuing to paint for exhibits and commissions. She has been a dog trainer and for a number of years was involved in dog rescue where she fostered, rehabilitated and re-homed dogs who'd had a rough start in life. She usually has a houseful of pets and currently shares her home with two cats. Besides art and animals, she loves the outdoors, coffee, and playing clarinet in the Prince Rupert Community Band.
