Ornaments by Lynne Isaacs

After graduation, Lynne worked as a graphic artist for a full service advertising agency.  She was able to design the advertising and see it through from conception to completion.  Lynne was especially pleased when the finished product looked like her original drawing.

Lynne went to school to become a graphic artist.  She worked primarily in colored pencil and charcoal until an instructor urged her to try something new and to move out of her comfort zone.  Lynne attempted to work with pastels, but was frustrated with her lack of control.  To get used to pastels, Kathleen O'Connell suggested that Lynne draw a circle and turn it into a ball, make a triangle into a cone and a square into a box.  That was the only instruction Lynne needed to master the medium.   She then felt confident enough to do a portrait of happy clowns, followed by a similar portrait of sad clowns.
