Lynda Hyde's Art Style

Lynda Hyde's artistic journey began with a love for geometric painting in the '70s. This aesthetic has seamlessly woven through her eclectic career, influencing her performances, designs, and even her hairstyle. Her work in performance involved designing and painting props, infusing them with her unique geometric style. 

Hyde follows a systematic approach to her paintings, working on one at a time until completion. Her inspiration may come from sketches, past designs, or even her mood. Colors play a crucial role, chosen not only for aesthetic appeal but also for their design impact. The artist enjoys exploring the dynamic interplay of colors, whether they complement or rebel against each other. Her artistic process is an intricate dance between methodical design elements and intuitive choices.

Lynda Hyde's affinity for modernism stems from her upbringing in the '50s and '60s, where vibrant colors and new artistic expressions left a lasting impression. Modernist values, characterized by bold shapes and colors, resonate with her artistic sensibilities. She finds joy in creating abstract art that allows viewers to interpret and connect with the work in their unique ways.
