Lynda Hoffman Snodgrass exhibits her work at Creekside June and July

From shared experiences in realism, tributes to spirituality and journeys into abstraction: my

artwork is a culmination and a sharing of my life experiences, dreams, inner visions, of all I that

am. A third generation Artist I was encouraged to explore and express my creativity at an

early age. Predominately, I am a watercolorist; a colorist with a strong emphasis on design.

The most important part of a painting for me is the message or experience that I want to

share with the viewer. How I handle this dictates the style and medium that I use. If I can do

this with watercolor I will, but I won’t limit myself to just that medium.

Born in Wisconsin, I moved to Oregon in 1964, calling the Rogue Valley my home since

1972. In 1973 I began to work with watercolor on paper and decided to make it my primary

medium. It was 1978 when I received a BS in Art from SOSC. A lifetime member and

past President of the Watercolor Society of Oregon, I was honored to receive the WSO

2014 Service Award. I am also a signature member of the Northwest Watercolor Society,

a lifetime member of the International Society of Experimental Artists and an associate

member of the American and National Watercolor Societies. I have judged Art

Exhibitions, presented lectures, art demonstrations, taught classes and critiqued for art

organizations as well as individuals. My paintings hang in private collections throughout the United States and around the world.

 

Over the years I have grown and changed with it so have my paintings. Today, I want my

artwork to stir or spark something within the viewer, to allow their imaginations to play.

My husband Mato Snodgrass, a silversmith and I live in a cabin along Coleman Creek where

we maintain our studios surrounded by the trees and wildlife of the Siskiyou mountains.
