Lynn's fascination with clay began in the early 60's during her college years. She graduated from the University of Oregon in 1963 with a B.S. and a minor in Art. In the 1980's she set up her studio in San Diego and returned to clay. Mostly self taught until discovering Mesa College's Ceramic's program, Lynn has been influenced and inspired by teachers John Conrad, and Lana Wilson. She was also influenced by techniques learned at workshops and the work that she sees when traveling in the U.S., Canada, and Europe. The ceramics/clay/pottery pieces shown at the Mingei Museum in Balboa Park are also of great inspiration. Lynn thinks that functional pots should be technically well made, lovely to look at, and fun to use. Her pieces are often wheel thrown, though sometimes hand built or a combination of the two techniques. She also makes original tiles, and paints on commercial tiles. She is a member of Clay Artists of San Diego and the Point Loma Artist's Association.
