About the Artist
The work of Lynda Watson, whether jewelry, drawing, or mixed media, is about her life. It remembers good times, bad times, extensive travel, adventures, friendships, family, and celebrations. Visual images from these times are attached to places in her memory, and characteristics of those places suggest the composition, determine the imagery, and dictate the surfaces that become the components of her work. Mental pictures, quick sketches, and occasional photographs provide saved images. From Burma and Turkey to her own back yard, life happens in places.
The composite of Watson's work forms a visual diary. It tells a story in a rough chronological order with some "life happens" gaps along the way. It continues to recall, document, relive, explore, and savor memorable times from the many places where she has spent her time. She hopes that viewing these pieces prompts memories from observers as well. Everyone has visual memories that can evoke valued responses.
