I loved the paintings first time I saw one. Thanks to the Tate for only postponing her exhibition rather than cancelling it due to covid19. It was worth the wait.

Amazing artist...and fantastic taste in music (I wonder which Bill Evans albums she likes...)!

In this film, Lynette shares her favourite album to paint to. We'd love to know which albums inspire your creativity!

Mike Keneally's Nonkertompf album is one I can hardly listen to until the end. It explodes with creativity, so I HAVE to pick up my own instruments and try stuff for myself.
