Pansy Garlic Pot, stoneware

Lynne received her BA in Art Education from Glassboro State College (now Rowan University) in NJ and a MALS from Wesleyan University in Middletown, CT where she was fortunate to study with Mary Risley, who was an amazing inspiration.

In addition, she has taken classes at Wesleyan Potters for many years, becoming a member three years ago when she retired from teaching art at Griswold Middle School in Rocky Hill. Influential instructors at the Pottery were, among others, Lori Lapin and David McLellan. Lynne continues to gain new insights from books, workshops, fellow artists and life.

Occasionally she shows her work in places other than The Gallery Shop at Wesleyan Potters, and has won awards in shows with Connecticut Women Artists.
