Lynne Strom-Berg, M.A. is a musician, educator and artist.
Raised in Los Altos Hills, she has worked as a composer, arts administrator and educator throughout the bay area for over 30 years. In her early career, she collaborated with health professionals and composers, successfully producing and selling her original music and fitness products internationally. After becoming a mother, she focused her creative energy on arts education. Uniting her passions of music, movement and art she worked as a teacher and trainer reaching hundreds of children and adults with her awarding winning programming.
As a mosaic artist she is reflective of her interdisciplinary past, making work rooted in personal memory and connections to the people and places she has loved and lost. In this fragmented world with more disconnection and waste, mosaic art allows her to unite what is broken, creating something new, healing and cohesive. By joining discarded fragments of mirror, wood, pottery and found objects the shattered becomes whole again. Her art becomes a pathway to share and embrace the human mosaic and move towards wholeness and emotional well-being.
“From an early age I loved daydreaming and creating from my imagination. As an only child I had to entertain myself. Using my hands to create anything made me feel fully engaged in life. Building entire houses in the orchard flowers, cutting apricots and laying them down in interesting shapes, playing piano and guitar, painting, singing, sports. I enjoy the energy of sound, pattern and color, and most of all, the excitement of following a new idea. “
