Artist Statement

 (Current work by Lynne Medsker)

Creating art is the purpose of my life. It keeps my life in balance, letting me escape the tensions of the everyday world.  When I create I feel alive! The experience of capturing the photographic images used in my art allows me to spend time observing and connecting with nature. Small details and textures seize my imagination, begging to be photographed. Following those encounters with hours spent digitally layering, modifying and enhancing the images to create my digital art satisfies my cerebral nature.

My subject matter begins as images of nature but is transformed into the abstract.  The final result is often highly detailed and multi-layered in appearance.  My artwork continues to evolve, just as I do, with the passing of time.  It has become more complex, with more texture, detail and dimension.  I hope viewers will not only enjoy the imagery of each piece but will find evidence of things hidden within, waiting to be discovered.
