Her colorful calling

Everyday greatness: LYNN COLWELL

Who she is Lynn Colwell is a mixed-media artist in Redmond, Washington. In grade school, a teacher told her she had no artistic talent and Lynn believed her. Until 2015, that is, when she retired from a career in corporate communications. Looking to pursue a new interest, she took a year-long online painting class. “It blew me away,” she says. She started painting striking portraits of women’s faces, combined with short messages of hope and empowerment. A new one almost every day. In five years, she’s completed about 1,000 paintings.

Experience, Look

The listing for our Cape Cod rental warned, “four-wheel-drive recommended,” but nothing could have prepared us for the five-mile, one-lane rutted dirt road that twisted through the woods. Twice, we had to reverse into a sandy stretch to let an oncoming car pass.
