Lynn Lewis is a local painter who has taught art for 25 years in Arlington County, Virginia, and in Montgomery County, Maryland. She has exhibited her work at the Yellow Barn Gallery and Landow Gallery, both in Bethesda, Maryland; and Penn Place Gallery in Garrett Park, Maryland.
Her award-winning paintings are in local collections as well as scattered across the country. Many of Lynn’s new works combine the patterns and textures of burlap and other fibers with similar patterns and textures in nature. Her paintings are enchanting and earthy, and the extraordinary light, shadow and depth of her landscapes hold you captive in their quiet strength.
