Statement
Lynette’s artistic practice has been driven from an early age to paint, with a love of animals and a passion for horses.
The paintings are an impressionistic style, though many elements within the works hold true to subtle notations of realism, walking the line between loose movements and textures, to fine detail and anatomical correctness.
Using a wide array of different techniques, mixing the texture and variety of mediums to express an individual body of work.
With the main focus of Lynette's work being to explore the different notions and relations ships between humans and animals, in particular the horse.
This long-standing partnership between man and animal is one of great significance, not only with the everyday but into the realm of fantasy.
With Lynette’s own understanding for this partnership, having resided in the rural outskirts of Victoria, herself being surrounded by the direct importance the roll of the horse still plays in everyday life she is able to draw first hand on this as a major source of inspiration.
