Welcome to The Metamorphosis Gallery of Fine Art and Design! Here you will find exhibits of work by master artist and designer, Terry Lynch. Lynch's work has been influenced by such great artist as Pablo Picasso,Salvador Dali and Jackson Pollock!
Lynch uses the process of metamorphosis as applied to creation of fine art and designs to produce fantastic art work! Metamorphosis is the process of radical change produced by taking basic elements and creating something new or different. The term as applied here relates to the process of taking different design elements and using them to create a never before seen images or novel design concepts. This also involves using mixed media (photography, video and scanned images combined with traditional art media such as drawings and painting) and using software to enhance or edit the images to create fine art. Lynch also uses images of classic art, celebrated personalities, icons, high technology and famous places or historical events in production of metamorphic art works.
I hope you enjoy this on-line exhibit. All the exhibits featured here are available upon gifts and apparel in the Morphic Art Emporium for the benefit and enjoyment of people everywhere. Please send your comments or suggestions to: Terry Lynch (TAL). Include your name and URL if you would like me to visit your site. Thank you.

 Self Portrait: Morphing with Marilyn Monroe #1031 |
Just as The Mona Lisa represents a Renaissance icon, Marilyn Monroe is a 20th century icon which I use repetitiously in much of my work. Also I make use of other icons including celebrities, super models and clips from works of the great masters which are used to construct collages. This is not done to steal anyone's work or associate with their fame so much as it is to express the idea that images which are widely popularized and/or advertises become part of the human psyche and hence evoke emotion when reviewed in other art work. I believe that such icon images belong to all people and should not be considered as owned by anyone. Therefore their usage in my art work is a creative expression which protests the commercialization of personalities. Therefore you may find clips of famous people or historically significant art and photographs in my work, not as plagiary, but as a creative incorporation of universally identifiable images to produce a new, original and emotion evoking art work.
 Fish in the sky |
Fish in the sky was produced to illustrate Sightings. The work was produced using a photograph of the Taj Mahal. A crude UFO was drawn using a mouse. Then PhotoSuite III was used to change the color, cartoonize the graphic and cut/paste to produce the "fish" in the reflection pool. The idea is that the fish reflects in the sky to produce a mirage of an UFO instead of vice-versa. Yet because the fish is underwater it also looks like a reflection of the UFO.
Please note that just as I use icons in my work, I use famous monuments, buildings or other structures for symbolic reasons. For example, The Taj Mahal may symbolize undying devotion or love to a kindred spirit as well as a majestic example of architecture. Often I use great or majestic wonders in my designs as symbolism to evoke emotions associated with those objects.
 Mona Lisa Deer #3 |
Mona Lisa Deer #3 was produced by taking Leonardo da Vinci's The Mona Lisa and adding a mule deer's head, sun, butterfly and flower prop to produce a collage. Then the resulting image was cartoonized and distorted or morphed using Photo Suite III.
 Mona Lisa Deer #1a |
Mona Lisa Deer #1A is a variation of the above Mona Lisa collage. Here the image was simply given a swirl morph using Photo Suite III.
 Mona Lisa Deer Mirage #2 |
Mona Lisa Deer Mirage #2 was produced using the above Mona Lisa collage, adding a blue tone, using a mirage morph filter and then cartoonizing the image.
 Mona Lisa Moose #5 |
Mona Lisa Moose #5 was produced using Photo Suite III to add a clock, electric guitar and moose head props. Then the image was morphed vertically and saved at a critical phase in the process.
 Mona Lisa Moose #6 |
Mona Lisa Moose #6 was produced by adding a blue lens filter to Mona Lisa Moose #5.
 Morphing with the Masters |
Morphing with the Masters was produced by taking a video camera image of myself a Hitachi video cam and Snappy interface device. Then PhotoSuite was used to cut/paste and morph the image resulting in a kaleidoscopic collage whiich incorporates mirrored clips from both Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dali.
Britney Spears as "The Mona Lisa" with her clones (c) 2000 by Tal Lynch, was first published upon the Internet in 2000 along with a number of other morphic presentations featuring "The Mona Lisa" to demonstarte and illustrated the artist's talents.
Britney Spears as "The Mona Lisa" with her clones was produced in 2000 and is presented here for exhibit and display purpose only.
Britney Spears as "The Mona Lisa" with her clones. This is the fifth design in this series of special creations inspired by Britney Spears. Can you tell which one is The Mona Lisa and which one is Britney Spears? This print was given a blue tint to add to the mystique, blending the past with the present which bleeds constantly into the future. This work was first published in 2000 on the Internet. In 2006 Britney Spears released a song featuring herself as a clone of "The Mona Lisa." It is therefore highly probable that Britney Spears, her producers or agents, were inspired by the earlier feature of Britney Spears as the Mona Lisa illustrating the power, if not prophecy, of the artist's creativity. This item may be availabe for exhibit only, given CafePress generally flags any items featuring celebrities who may greedily claim all rights to their image even when that image is morphed with the Mona Lisa.

Britney Spears released a song and music video "Mona Lisa" in 2006 based upon her being cloned with "The Mona Lisa!" Is this plagiary or was Britney Spears merely inspired by Lynch's design? Watch the video and see what you think.
Whether this is an interesting coincidence or Lynch inspired Britney Spears, Lynch was the first person to clone Britney Spears with "The Mona Lisa" which may, by association, make her as noted historically as Leonardo da Vinci's iconic figure. Ah, the muse inspires the muse who inspires the muse! What a wonderful serendipity!
In this beautiful morphic design, Lynch produces a carpet based upon Tutankhamon.
 Tutankhamon's Totem Carpet #06 |
Tutankhamon's Totem Carpet is an example of one of my more recent works. It blends ancient icons with modern design concepts that could only be produced using computer art techniques.
I'll be adding new exhibits in the future so please check the gallery pages below.
