Artist Statement

"When I stare at a blank canvas I have one of several emotions. One is excitement for I am looking at a perfectly blank canvas that holds infinite possibilities and I can’t wait to begin. Another is fear because I am looking at a perfectly blank canvas that holds infinite possibilities and I have no idea of what I want to do. I have a saying on the door in my studio:

“Painting is easy. All you have to do is stare at a blank canvas until drops of blood appear on your forehead.”

Lynne Feldman grew up on Manhattan’s upper west side. She began her formal art training at the age of twelve at the Art Students League of New York, and continued to study drawing and painting there for the next fifteen years. She attended New York University and holds a Master’s degree from Columbia University. She has made her home in Rochester, New York for the past thirty-five years.
