Painter Lin Price takes everyday elements and creates fantastical
works where the mundane becomes magical. She often emphasizes the human figure as in “The Castle”
which depicts a businessman moving through a fictional landscape featuring a castle. Animals also become characters in paintings
that suggest modern day fairy tales.
