Bird In Head

Oil Paintings by C.Lynn Tegenfeldt

Artist Reception: Saturday August 21, 5:00 – 9:00pm

New work by local abstract expressionist artist C.Lynn Tegenfeldt. Ms. Tegenfedlt’s new body of work is an exciting collection of color on canvas.

Going back to her art origins of photography, C.Lynn starts with an original digital photograph and then deconstructs the image by mixing the color channels in a digital computer program. She extracts the hardness of the line by blending the pixels. She calls this process her inner GUERRILLA. The manipulated image becomes her sketch for her painting. From one “sketch” she paints several paintings with variations in color and composition creating a progression of large format paintings.

This present body of work is a progression from an art show Ms. Tegenfeldt had with David Rivas in 2006 at the Ventura Artist Union Gallery titled “Clash of Colors”. All of the new pieces, which are variations on a common thread, were painted with oil on canvas and are large in format.
