Lynn Toulson

Painter

Based in Epsom, Surrey, Lynn attended West Surrey College of Art and Design (now part of the UCA group) obtaining a degree in printed textiles back in the late 1980’s. She loves to work with colour, both in oil and acrylic, often applying paint with a palette knife and thickening mediums such as wax to add texture to her paintings. She is inspired by nature and her surroundings when travelling and walking her dogs. Working from her own photos is imperative to her as she believes capturing the essence of a place is only possible if one has experienced it personally. A few years ago she attended a foundation course in Art Therapy at Roehampton University which reinforced her opinion that art has a hugely positive effect on our mental wellbeing whether as a practitioner or a viewer. Having brought up three children she is at the stage in her life where she wants to do more of what she loves, creating images and artworks that will hopefully bring joy to and resonate with the viewer. She has also recently revisited her love of batik and is currently working on a new collection.
