I am a novelist - working in fantasy - and an artist - working with mythological and symbolic themes both eastern and western. I love color as you can see and use mostly wonderful creamy Williamsburg oil paints in my work.

My work reflects who I am.
I care about attention to detail and the nostalgic.
I adore texture and pattern, weathered metal/brick, antique buttons and wax seals.
I am especially drawn to the subjects of architecture, vintage automobiles and fish.
Most importantly, I am interested in integrating these elements, subjects and surface
into my work using various media and techniques.

DESTIG MAGAZINE LISTS LYN ORONA, NUMBER 10 ON THEIR LIST OF 25 RECOMMENDED ARTISTS FOR 2019.
I started in the arts as early as 1969 as a portrait artist and clay sculpture. I have owned businesses thru the years and have been in many juried fine art and International shows throughout New Mexico, Nevada, Texas, Arizona and California. I am mostly self taught, but also have taken courses with the Columbus art and Design of Ohio and Foothill College in California. While living in another state, I painted the legendry figures of the Old West, capturing the essence of the outlaws, like Billy the Kid, Wyatt Earp, who lived so large in our history. After moving to New Mexico, the history and stories of everyday life, colorful cultures of Native American and Mexican people took hold of my brush. My style of art had finally found the right home.

I choose Watercolor as my medium because it represents Freedom. Its's light transparent nature moves and explodes on the paper. The paint itself possesses a personality and behaviors. Landscapes are my preference - Plein Air is the ultimate in freeing painting experiences. When you arrive at a setting and are settling in, one absorbs the Energy it has to offer; be it from Vibrant Color, Flowing Waters, Clouds or simply Natures Beauty on full display. The challenge is two part. First, choosing the colors that resonate with the emotions one sees or feels. The second is then, putting it on to paper. One is "free" to escape into the painting - Letting the Chase Begin!
