Lindsey, a native of Fernandina Beach, graduated from FBHS in 2004 and spent her college years avoiding leaving her hometown. She attended Florida State College at Jacksonville and completed her doctorate of pharmacy at the University of Florida. Lindsey is a practicing pharmacist, wife of David and mom to two children, whom they homeschool.

Lindsey is a self-taught artist that began creating art on canvas and paper in 2021. In high school she began exploring paint and loved watching other’s reactions to her work. As life slowed down in 2021, Lindsey and her family lived with her 93-year-old Papa in his home on Amelia Island while building a house of their own. His home has been nestled among a canopy of oak trees for over 60 years. Drawing inspiration from the beauty around his house, she became inspired by the flora and fauna that presents throughout the various seasons: hydrangeas, amaryllis, camellias, roses, orange trees, grapefruit, and oak trees dripping with Spanish moss.

Lindsey’s mom is a talented gardener and palm tree extraordinaire and influences some of her work. Her mom has an eye for floral design, especially when styling and planting flower pots overflowing with hibiscus flowers and other tropical plant species. This inspires a great deal of Lindsey’s floral pieces.

Lindsey is also drawn to work with the palette knife. This stems from her love of pharmacy and the work she does daily using a spatula. It’s a part of her profession as a pharmacist and being able to make something beautiful with it makes her heart sing.

A big inspiration for her work is the gospel of Jesus Christ. She hopes to reflect the joy of the Lord that she has experienced though her art so that you can experience what she has. Ephesians 2:8-10 teaches us that “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.”
