WELCOME TO ETSIAN LYNNE REICHHART

Lynne says she is a starving artist working hard to create fun, lovely and sometimes different artwork for your enjoyment.

Lynne promotes her work on Etsy, Zazzle and other inventive ways. Recently she joined an intrepid group of independent artists, ‘THE IndiExhibit’, who together participate in celebrity gift lounges at various Award Events.

FUSCHIA FLOWER CLOSE UP

This January 2011, Lynne participated with THE IndiExhibit in presenting gift bags in GBK’s Golden Globes gifting lounge in L.A. and the SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL in Utah. Lynne’s display piece, a watercolour painting called ‘Fuchsia Flower Close Up’ was chosen for the Golden Globes GBK gift lounge TV & press release - to represent The IndiExhibit. Lynne’s artwork showed up on all the local L.A. television stations all day long.

Everyone that stopped by the IndiExhibit table in the Golden Globe gift lounge received a signed and numbered limited edition print of Lynne's Vancouver BC painting.

VANCOUVER B.C.

Lynne Reichhart reached a point in her life when she felt it was time to explore her creative side. With the support of her husband Steve, Lynne created an art studio in their Upstate NY home and she now leads a happy, busy, creative life painting and marketing her art online

BALLET SLIPPERS

After embracing her creative journey, Lynne studied at the Munson-Williams-Proctor School of Art and at the Kirkland Art Center. She feels that having a better understanding of the fundamentals of art enables her to create better quality artworks. Lynne continues to study with an art professor, learning new techniques and pushing her artistic boundaries.

GLOWING ABSTRACT

Inspiration for Lynne’s paintings is diverse. Objects or scenes draw her inexplicably to them. Each of Lynne’s paintings represents a journey through light and shadow, through perfection and deficiency, through truth and magic. Lynne goes beyond recording what she sees; she interprets, expresses and adds her creative spark to each image.

SOUTHERN MANSION

Lynne describes her style as representational. She loves to explore working with different subjects, mediums and surfaces. Her three top favorite mediums are acrylic, watercolor and colored pencil on canvas or paper. Lynne also paints on three dimensional objects such as tiles. Subject matter such as still life’s or close up floral images are most often painted in watercolor on paper. Lynne says that anything goes with acrylics. She prefers to work in smaller sizes that are more intimate and affordable for her collectors.

PITCHER WITH GRAPES STILL LIFE

Lynne Reichhart has showed her work in many juried, group and solo shows over the years. She has also had her work published in several books including ‘Art on a Plate – The ACEO cookbook’ and ‘Create, Collect, Trade, a Collection of Artist Trading Cards Created by Artists and Students I’ and Create, Collect, Trade, a Collection of Artist Trading Cards Created by Artists and Students II.
