Here is Lynda's artist statement for the exhibit:
It was a warm summer afternoon, my friend and I were lying on our backs on the grass in my yard.
She said to me "Lynda, you're an Artist, tell me about Color".
I thought about it for a moment and told her it would be my delight to share color with her.
She had been blind from birth.
I thought to myself, just how do I share color with someone who is blind?
Do you feel it? Taste it? Smell it? Hear it?
As the sun set upon us that day, I shared every experience I could, beyond sight, of color.
Going through the rainbow of hues, to color theories and values.
A warm sunny day can become rich dirt as yellow goes from primary hue to a deep value.
I believe I "Awakened To Color" on that day.
Painting in abstraction has been very rewarding to me.
It allows me to use my intuition more when I paint.
Color, pattern, texture and design are the main elements that I am working with.
These abstracts allow the viewer's imagination to play, which I love!
It is my hope that, in viewing this exhibition, you too find yourself "Awakening To Color".
