Snapshot of the Author

Lynne Wirthlin
At an early age, Lynne was directly influenced to become an artist by noted children’s author and illustrator, Eloise Wilkin. Art became Lynne’s first love and eventually her career. Lynne considers her extensive background in graphic design and illustration the foundation for her life today as a fine artist. She has worn many hats. Before transitioning to a full-time painter, she was designing and managing product lines for the consumer goods industry. She also taught design and illustration for many years at Antonelli’s Technical College. Through her career, she also freelanced as an illustrator for several different children's magazines. Born and raised in southern Ohio, Lynne currently lives in the country outskirts of Cincinnati, Ohio, where the dense woodlands and wide pastoral valleys continually inspire her work.
