Artist statement
"My goal as a photographic artist is to capture the magical essence of the
moment creating an image evoking an immediate emotional response in the viewer.
Whether fleeting, sustained, negative or positive, I strive to strike and
connect the common human chord within."
A native Texan, Lynne still resides in "The Lone Star State" with her five pound Yorkshire Terrier, Sami.
