“The Space within Us” by Lynda Briggs
“My paintings are born from a place of free spirit, celebrating vitality and uniqueness. Trusting in the creative process, I embrace a path of
exploration and discovery. My art is an intuitive conversation, often beginning with no preconceived ideas. My voice is joyfully applied to the canvas and in return, a new world opens up with exciting, soulful inspiration, where anything is possible. I listen and reply by painting what the piece seems to be asking for. Giving and taking, until it feels harmonious and all is right with my world. Wholeheartedly, a painting is born!” -Lynda
In high school Lynda received a Congressional Art Award from the state of Michigan and went on to obtain her BA in Fine Art in 1989 from Graceland University in Lamoni, Iowa. Shortly after, she married, started a family, and played an active role in parenting. Devoting her life to her children, Lynda focused her artistic energies towards volunteering her creative skills to school age children, exposing them to the joys of visual art. As her kids have grown, so have Lynda’s artistic endeavors. She has had the opportunity to work with artists from around the globe and has been showcased in numerous venues.
Currently, Lynda resides in Pleasanton, California and is a member of Pleasanton Art League and Livermore Art Association. Her paintings can be found in government offices, businesses and private collections throughout California, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Maryland, Missouri, Ohio and Oregon.
