Lynn Hanley lives and works in East Lothian and Leith. She studied Printed Textile Design and worked as a freelance designer before returning to her first love of painting.

​Lynn's cityscapes and landscapes show the influence of her textile background. Her use of gouache as the main medium combines with her love of colour and texture to create a unique style.

​Her work has been described as 'peppered with tiny people like Lowry cross bred with Beryl Cook.  Deliberately naïve and meticulously painted, they have a charm that is uplifting'.
