Mike Lynch
Artist Statement
There is a sanctity in everyday life that can be captured if you pay attention. Something good or interesting always happens when I am in the moment, connected to my surroundings and have a camera. The camera allows me to connect deeper with the world and find miraculous moments as they are randomly presented. If you are focused, you will be rewarded. Cal it serendipity, alchemy, or better yet magic.

He resided on or near the Venice canals during his formative years making the leap to Santa Monica for teenage years and beyond and now resides in north east Los Angeles. The city has informed his passion for street and landscape photography.

He was awarded the best experimental image for a portrait reflected into mylar and toned in photoshop which was displayed in the annual Santa Monica College Photography Show.
