About the artist...
Lynda Wood has been creating beautiful works of art for over 30
years.  In 1988, with encouragement from her husband, Robert, she
began to concentrate solely on her artistic career.  Thoroughly
researching her subjects by using her acute observation and
photography skills, Lynda creates original art excelling in detail
and accuracy. In 1994 she began experimenting with wildlife art on
feathers and the popularity of this form of artistic expression is
proven each year by its growing demand.
Lynda's son Wylie, is an
amateur photographer
who has added
many images to her
reference library.

Please include the words
'feather paintings'
in the subject line

With acrylic paints and a very delicate touch, Lynda hand paints each feather
(turkey, pheasant, macaw and grouse) using regular artist brushes.
Working with miniature paintings has proven to be quite a challenge, as even the
smallest brush stroke can 'make or break' a painting, especially when working on the
facial features of the animal. The eyes give the subject life when they are done correctly
and she strives to make them the focal point of all her work.  Numerous fine coats of
clear spray throughout the process and very special care in handling keep them
intact until Lynda and her husband mat and frame each piece.

These unique and beautiful works of art are completed using a
variety of feathers.  Often you'll find beads, crystals, leather or
lures nestled amongst the trim feathers.  The beauty of Lynda's work,
her attention to detail in both the paintings and in the completion
of the pieces all combine to make them 'one of a kind' works of art.  

While exhibiting at shows, Lynda demonstrates her
feather painting technique. This enables her to
discuss the process with folks and also helps them understand
the tremendous amount of work that goes into each piece.
As the demand for her feather work increases,
the list of species she adds to her repertoire continues to grow.  
Both originals and prints are available for sale.
Commissioned artwork is done upon request.
