Schulte has exhibited her work in solo shows in New Hampshire, Vermont, Kansas, Maine, New York, Massachusetts, and Washington DC. Primary among her themes are coastal views and landscapes of Vermont, Maine, and Massachusetts. Notable series included “A Year in Bloom” when she produced 365 smaller paintings of flowers in oil and watercolor, shown at the AVA gallery in Lebanon, NH. This series was followed by “Fresh Bloom,” consisting of 15 larger floral works, shown at the Latham Library in Thetford, VT. A “Coastal Sunrise” body of work was shown at the Marblehead Arts Association. “Remembrance – the Pink Chair Project” celebrated the memory of the artist’s mother in moving and beautiful images and was shown in 14 venues over 3 years. Each painting has a story, told in her accompanying book, and these enrich the experience for the viewer. Lynne’s current body of work is a series on the Working Waterfront.
