Lynnette Shelley is an award-winning Pennsylvania artist specializing in contemporary mixed-media animal and nature paintings. Fusing her great love of wildlife, patterns and archetypes into her strikingly unique artworks, she creates highly detailed and complex compositions using a sophisticated process developed from a build-up of multiple layers incorporating techniques in both drawing and paintingꟷfrom crosshatching to ink splatter to linear painting. Some of Shelley’s work (her “fauxsaic” paintings) also incorporates elements of collage in which she adds hand-colored and cut watercolor paper to the artwork in a process that resembles mosaic tile.​

Shelley’s animal- and nature-themed artworks have been displayed nationally as well as regionally at museums, art galleries and other venues. In 2021, she was awarded “Master Artisan” status by the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen. ​​Originally from Delaware, she lives in Ambler, Pennsylvania, and maintains a private studio in Norristown.
