Working in acrylics, Lykke has many techniques at her disposal,
including the unique method of roughly distributing colors on the
painting’s surface and placing a sheet of cellophane over them to
roll the materials out “like pizza dough.” She employs those
techniques in works that range from whimsically realistic images of
trees and birds to kaleidoscopic abstract patterns. But in all of
them a positive energy shines through. The artist says that the goal
of her work is to make people happy, and her paintings embody that
sense of happiness.
