My art holds its sensibility and embodies its calming nature.” Lynda's love of the ocean started in her childhood years, growing up in her family beach house overlooking the Indian Ocean, Australia. The sea is her first love and a constant source of her creativity. With a Bachelor of Arts Degree and a highly successful career as a creative director and graphic designer for agencies around the world, she has now returned back home, by the sea. “Life is a series of moments to be loved, lived and let go. Our search for a more authentic life inspires a new found appreciation for nature and natural materials. As we embrace the old as new, we move towards a more genuine and conscious way of living. It’s the simple pleasures that remind us that life need not be complicated. The warm sun on our face, the cool coastal breeze - beautiful moments, natural in their simplicity and calming by nature.” “I love living on the coast and I love being creative, I’m lucky to be able to merge my two passions and create with them. I draw inspiration from life’s simple pleasures and natural beauty. Small simple things that connect on a soul level are intertwined with classic and modern art and design creating my intuitive free-flowing style." With a deep appreciation and awareness of the natural beauty of her coastal home. She lives and works in a little beach house by the sea and stands grounded in her gratitude for life and all that it brings. “The power of the ocean is within us all. It’s soothing nature inspires me as does its ability to set me free. Like the ocean, art has the power to communicate an energy of peace, to align us with our true self and so inspires wellbeing in our lives. I believe through art and the simple joys of life, we can make a profound change in our own lives and in the world.”
