Lynn Underwood

I am this group’s facilitator/coordinator. This gathering was begun by Joy, and I have been a member for 2 years. I am not a professional artist, but art is a central part of my life, and I have done some art for hire, done commissioned work, two book covers, and have been in area shows.. Most of my art is a part of daily contemplative practice, and drawing people, animals, and ordinary things of my days is at the core of it. I live in Northeast Ohio in the woods near waterfalls. My main project now is a book, with the rough draft just finished, but I am still doing editing and figuring next steps. My big effort this summer was for a lecture on compassionate love at the Chautauqua Institute. My website is www.lynnunderwood.com

My work is rarely more than 9×12, and I work in watercolor, ink, and colored pencils.

I am seriously into mending these days. Here is a daughter’s wool sock. There is a link to my blogpost, Is Mending Art, on this here.

Flower to bring spring out of the winter.

“The greatest exercise at once of the Divine goodness, and wisdom, and power, is to bring good out of evil.”— St. Clement: Stromata.
