About Lynette's work

If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite.

—William Blake

In my paintings I strive to convey a sense of the infinite which exists in the everyday but is veiled to our conventional senses. I believe that everything within the universe is comprised of the same elements, of the same energy; and if we are open to it, we can perceive and experience the universe through every object, every form of life, and equally through every landscape and every event.

My current work is an effort to integrate three facets which jointly help us to experience this sense of the infinite: first, that which we call real, the world experienced through our senses, captured by the depiction of objects; second, what is commonly included in the concept of intellectual, expressed by the use of geometric shapes and patterns; and finally, connecting and embracing the first two, the cosmic, expressing that which we can intuit as though things were unbounded by space and time.

Through this effort, I hope to share the recognition that within us all resides that which is true.

Everything you can imagine is real.

—Pablo Picasso
