Lynn’s latest work reflects her interest in interpreting her impressions of the world through mixed media. Using an experimental approach, and working in an abstract style she has coined “conceptual expressionism”. Lynn captures the spirit of life, regardless of subject matter.

Lynn is the founder and art director of the Mountain Haven Art Centre located in the picturesque forested mountains of rural Mission, BC. Tucked between Rolley Lake Provincial Park and Stave Lake, it is an easy one-hour drive from Vancouver. The centre provides art workshop programs featuring both local and international art instructors, and is now celebrating its fifteenth year.

In September 2009, Lynn implemented a pilot project of her new program called CREATIVITY COACHING – TAP INTO YOUR CREATIVE SPIRIT AND SOAR!

Using the coaching format with a small group, over the past year, there has been unbelievable development and growth. Creative goals have been achieved by encouraging artists to tap in to the knowledge of who they are, assessing and nourishing strengths, cultivating creativity, and uncovering self-limiting beliefs.

The ‘Show & Sale’ at The Mountain Haven Art Centre on Nov. 6th & 7th features works by Lynn Lawson Pajunen and her students.
