Girl Talk
By Lynda Coleman
Austin, TX - Lynda Coleman is a professional
Visual Artist, she has been painting for over twenty years, and has been a
professional artist for the past nine years. She’s created designs, images
and paintings by using different mediums such as acrylics, watercolors,
colored pencils, oil pastels and some airbrush in her work. She also has
experience in painting murals and images on Windows 95, as well as portraits
and face paintings for children.
Ms. Coleman has been blessed by being able to do community projects, such as
exhibits, murals and displays in schools, churches, local businesses and art
shows from 1988 until the present, and wants her work to be a blessing. She
volunteers her time to help with special education children and troubled
youth with their art projects and basic techniques, impacting their lives
and sharing my art experience with them.
She graduated from LBJ High School in 1992, has worked for the City of
Austin, Parks and Recreation Department for several years, working with
children of all ages. She has worked at the Alamo Recreation Center as an
Activity Specialist, working the After-school programs and the Summer Day
Camp and the teen programs.
Ms. Coleman is a member of Littig Outreach Mission Church, where she is an
Evangelist under the Pastoral Overseer Willie Mae Simmons.
It is my desire to do my work full-time, by art shows, consignments, and my
website. My art minister love, peace, healing and joy to hurting souls. My
art speaks life and hope, so I will always paint spiritual, nostalgic and
encouraging themes to continue to break barriers of separation.
God has truly blessed me with the ability to capture the thoughts of others,
the prayers, visions, pain and dreams. It is my desire to continue to touch
people’s lives, to remind them that they are loved by Christ. My art is
greater than I could imagine.
