Lynda is a full-time time painter and illustrator living in New Zealand. She is trained in fine arts, painting, teaching, and art therapy and brings all of this leading into her art practice. She strives to embed happiness and inspiration into each artwork and believes that joy and kindness can change the world.
Her artwork is largely motivated by her love of animals and her desire to awaken kindness and compassion within her viewers.
Within her paintings, stories unfold and the viewers are taken into a world where animals are treated with respect and kindness; a world where anything is possible and stories are abundant. It is within this world that people may be reminded of the integral part of their self which forms their humanity: compassion, love, and a kinship with animals that we all felt as young children.
