About
I am a practicing artist located in Cary, North Carolina. My work is primarily in watercolors and acrylic paints. I have played around with water-soluble oils and alcohol markers.
My favorite subjects include historic architecture and pet portraits. I am a crazy cat lady at heart, and I share my love of animals with many who wish to capture their fur babies. I also enjoy figure drawing and attend a few area live model sessions every month.
My Rutgers BFA concentration in drawing and printmaking served me well during my 15-year career as a clothing designer in New York City before moving my family to Cary, NC, in 1998.
My painting journey began in 2013 after a vow made with a friend that the coming year would be when we got back to our artist's roots. Twelve years later, I sell and exhibit my work and never turn back!
During the Pandemic of 2020-21, I embraced creating outside ("en plein air") as a way to connect with other creatives and get out of my house! Over the past six years, I began painting in watercolors because they are portable, not messy and I enjoy the bright transparent colors! You can see some of these under my "places" tab in the navigation bar.
In 2022, I incorporated Lindsey's Fine Art as a business and began appearing at some Cary-based pop-up markets. My booth, Lindsey's Fine Art, regularly appears at the Cary Farmers Market on Saturdays from 8 am to noon, adjacent to the popular Downtown Cary Park.
