July Artist, Lyndsey Mickelson

Get to know Elmaro's July artist!
Here's some info about Lyndsey:
I grew up in Ridgeland, a tiny town nestled between Rice Lake and Menomonie in the northern woods of Wisconsin. I completed my Bachelor’s degree in biomedical science and graduated from UW River Falls in 2022. I have additional minors in animal science and biology, and currently work as a clinical laboratory technician. My love and appreciation for nature and biology pours from my paintings through the wild scenery and especially the flowers.
When I paint these familiar botanicals and scenes I learn about myself in a way, because I let go of my conscious self when I pick up the brush. I pick colors as I go, and I use leaf/petal shapes based merely on what feels right in that moment. I let the bristles dance across the page, with the only boundaries being the edges of the paper. Here I can trust my own judgment, I can tune out the rest of the world, and I can even make mistakes! When I decide the piece is complete and step back, I find fragments of myself staring back at me.
If you have any questions or comments please feel free to reach out to me via email at bWlja2Vsc29ubHkgfCBnbWFpbCAhIGNvbQ==. I do take orders for custom/commission pieces! You can also find me on facebook as Lyndsey’s Studio.
