Lynda McKinney Lambert – American Artist & Author

Western Pennsylvania author and artist, Lynda McKinney Lambert discussing THE GIFT that KEEPS ON GIVING.

‘I left WVU in the spring of 1991. I left with a grateful heart. I was well prepared for the life I wanted to have in the fine arts and humanities.

When I left WVU in 1991, I gave myself a graduation gift that kept on giving for many years.

The GIFT

I took my first trip to Europe to study in a month-long program. It was a dream-come-true for me to be in Austria for an entire month of drawing and writing. I created an entire collection of art works that were exhibited in several galleries and museums when I returned home.

Pennsylvania Author/Artist, Lynda McKinney Lambert brings a poem from her archives today.
Do you remember the fear that gripped the world at the end of the final year of the twentieth-century?
Lynda wrote this poem on that final day. You can read the entire poem at this time. It has never been published or shared before now.

“I glanced to my right this morning

only to see that God has laid back his head

and is having a roaring good laugh…”
