Flowers have long been a major motif for over thirty years within Lynne's artworks, to the point were she is almost driven to paint the hues that resonate from the petals throughout the various season within her garden, this is not unlike the French painter Claude Monet who also painted flowers with the same passion in analysing the colour relationships of the petals.

2 Dogs Art Space Akashi is pleased to show the artworks of Lynne in this Invitational Still Life Drawing Project, especially her still life of flowers that resonates a gentle mood of domestic bliss, and one is reasonably sure the Japanese audiences look forward to seeing more of her images as they're uploaded onto the site over the coming Xmas month.
