Lynn Newman is a contemporary painter based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Following years in Los Angeles and New York, she returned to her hometown to be with family and focus on her dedicated studio practice.

Driven by an interest in the duality of human experience, Newman approaches the canvas through both the macro and micro. Her work engages an evolving dialogue between distant form and intimate detail, internal geography and human expression, spontaneity and structure. Working in oil, acrylic, and dry media, she creates layered compositions that explore depth and presence.

Newman holds a BFA from the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts) and a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology. Her paintings are held in private collections and are currently represented in Oklahoma.
