To the extent that visual media can be described in writing, Lindsay Duff describes her approach to painting. “I’ve always lived my life in a creative way, so everything I see becomes a possibility for a painting. Relationships and the beauty of nature inspire me. I intuit the vibrant colors and shapes of different paints and textures to create new realities, and add special papers I find among my travels. So my paintings are a reflection of the mystery and magic of everything around us.”
