Ross Lynem
I am fortunate to have a permanent studio space in an art gallery where i can spend time at my life long dream of being an artist. I am motivated mostly by strong patterns and value conrast. I love to play with color and explore the relationships they have. I pray to honor God with my paintings and hope you enjoy your visit. My email address is: rosslynem@gmail.com
