Bags, Handpainted Pareos, Art - Lynn Bristol

Lyn A. Bristol is a versatile artist – graphics, carnival and theatre costumes, stage sets, as well as handpainted fashions and one of a kind bags and wall hangings. Lyn also undertakes special commissions for local and international corporate gifts and other needs. Much of her commissioned work has been in the line of cultural and natural depictions.

Her one-of-a-kind bags come in all shapes and sizes, some taking form from the recycled materials they are made from, others in simple, elegant styles with full or accent hand-painting and adornment. Her pareos and clothing are subtle mixes of colourful Caribbean hues – earthy as well as tropical.

Her art takes much of it’s inspiration from the local and regional cultural scene – both traditional and contemporary and ranges from characterful illustrative to abstracted.
