Artist's StatementMy influences are the natural world, which never ceases to attract me.
The landscapes I paint are acrylic with soft pastel on top, over a textured board. I either seek out dramatic scenery, knarled tree or similar subject - something that is different and attracts my attention.
My other technique is working with acrylic ink. This is very loose, letting the medium choose its own path. The inks call for dramatic shapes and the natural world provides these in abundance. The subject matter is either birds and animals, or distinctive flowers.

Lynn Norton's Portfolios
Pastel Paintings
These paintings are done in soft pastel over a textured acrylic underpainting.
White-plumed waves along the shore
Where the curlews fly
The slender glimpse of open sea
The river runs free
The reeds stand tall against the sky
The lofty cliff of carrstone & chalk
The dunes whisper to me
The carmine leaves shine bright
One misty, moisty morning
Komorebi
Here you may sit, o’looking the sea and sky
A rocky cliff lies at the breaker's edge
Acrylic Ink Paintings
These paintings are done in acrylic ink on watercolour paper
Watch out, there's a falcon about
Thorondor
Jewel of the Amazon
The dark owl sits in solemn state
We watched each other 'cross the field
The pheasant watches with beady eye
