Lyn Segal’s appreciation for fine art began at an early age. “I always loved museums as a little girl. I love to look at paintings and pretty pictures,” says the president of Lynn Segal Fine Art, who began dealing art privately after closing her brick-and-mortar gallery in 1984. Siegel’s discriminating clientele span the globe, seeking out the Aspen-based dealer for modern, contemporary and Impressionist works from some of the art world’s most iconic names, including Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Henri Matisse and Andy Warhol. Siegel defines her own style as traditional, “But I lean toward contemporary or modern works,” she says. “There’s just a freshness to them; I like something with stark, life and energy. “Siegel brings the same passion to her work, the impact of a stunning piece serving as her figurative muse: “When I sell a beautiful painting to people who I know will love it and appreciate it, that’s when I feel inspired.”
