Artist Bio
Lynn Morgan has been creating art all of her life. Until her retirement from the corporate world, art was one of her hobbies, but she knew that when she retired, she would reinvent herself as an artist, and that’s what she did. By attending classes and workshops, she learned techniques that have evolved over the years from realistic renderings to a much more abstract style. Lynn loves to travel and is considered quite the adventurer by her friends. Her works are inspired by the sights and sounds of her travels to various parts of the world.
Lynn has a Bachelor’s degree in Education and a Master’s degree in Human Resources Management. She ultimately became a single mother, so the ability to support her daughter became the driving force in her life, although painting remained a hobby. She tried flying a plane, playing guitar and piano, playing golf, SCUBA diving, and sailing, but she always came back to painting.
Lynn painted with acrylics and watercolors until she was introduced to pastels. She has studied with Miroslav Antic, Terri Ford, Casey Klahn, Jen Evenhus, Aline Ordman, and Tony Allain. Her style continues to move toward more abstraction in both landscape and figurative works. The latest in this evolution is the introduction of an exciting collection of abstract and non-objective works in oil and cold wax. She has studied with Melinda Cootsona and Jenny Nelson.
Lynn is now a full-time artist. She is a signature member of the National Association of Women Artists (N.A.W.A), the Artists Guild of the Boca Raton Museum of Art, the Florida Artists Group (FLAG), Women in the Visual Arts (WITVA), and the Martin Artisans Guild. She is a juried member of the Pastel Society of America. She exhibits both locally and nationally and has won awards at several exhibits.
