Lynn Young
Thankfully, I have never been able to escape the clutches of this beautiful island. Born on the Isle of Wight, adopted as a baby, I spent every summer on the beach. Long, hot, carefree days at 'Point', 'Silver Sands', Lane End or Forelands. Moving to Seaview in my early twenties, before settling in Cowes.
So, having spent 39 years within a few minutes of the Solent, it is not suprising that the majority of my paintings reflect that. I work in acrylic ink and paint - my patience does not allow me to work in oils! I have recently found the joys of gold leaf and the use of fabric allows a greater texture that I was unable to achieve before. My current work explores the horizon. Sometimes this is distorted because of a wave or the rain, other times through greater abstraction. Although I visit the shores daily, I only ever paint from memory, as I wish to encourage the senses rather just replicate a view, this allows a looser feel. I do hope that one of my paintings may spark some positive emotion or a memory, or two.
