Ellie Cooper Lynch is a painter working and living in Los Angeles, California. In her paintings, she creates layered, lively ensembles of shapes and color using acrylics paints, watercolors, and pastel.
Her compositions are born from an amalgam of visual associations with sound, feeling, language, and taste, translating an intersecting web of sensations into color and form. Lynch’s practice probes the meditative qualities of painting through a distinctly contemporary lens. Working around her canvas, she creates sensory, process-driven works that reflect the nuances of human experience with an enduring sense of optimism. Her work is driven by an interest in the intangible energy that exists between people, objects, and places, crystalizing the experiences that bubble inside of us and yet slip through our fingers.
