Bonney Lake's Lyn McNees is February Featured Artist in Enumclaw Gallery

Bonney Lake artist Lyn McNees spent the last few years looking through the lens of her camera to find new ways of looking at the people, places and things around her. Lyn works deliberately to find the right technique to bring the highest quality to her images. The City of Enumclaw is pleased to present Lyn McNees’ latest pieces in her exhibit.

Artist Statement:

“I was struck by the shutter bug about four years ago. There were a number of people who “nudged” me along the way; my husband’s brother Jim, and our next door neighbor Gary who is a professional photographer.

The “eye” of the camera opened an incredible new world of creativity I had never experienced before.

I learned to see the world around me from multiple perspectives; color, composition, technical uses of a camera’s settings, and last but not least the photographs themselves.

Each photograph represents a moment in time, a memory that represents who I am and how I feel about this fantastic world we live in.

I am a member of the Rainer Hills Camera Club and my fellow Club members are my main inspiration to continue developing as a photographer and artist.
