Lynda McKay is an oil painter working from her home and studio on Sydney's lower north shore. Her love of light and shade informs her work as she turns the ordinary into something extraordinary. We absolutely LOVE her work!
Ahead of the show opening, Lynda told us about simple joys and daily rituals, what inspires her superb work, and what she hopes viewers see in her paintings.
How do you create your work?
"My still life works are painted from life in my studio with the help of photographs when a subject is no longer alive."
What's the story of the work in Life in Colour?
"The simple joy of tea or coffee which is a daily ritual in my life passed down from grandmother to mother to daughter."
What inspires you?
"I love to create and painting gives my enormous pleasure and personal rewards."
What do you hope people feel when they see your work?
"I hope that they see something that resonates with their own experiences in life."
