Lynn Sanguedolce.

Biography:
American painter Lynn R. Sanguedolce is an award-winning artist who has been represented by prestigious galleries across the country. A professional artist for over thirty years, her work may be found in collections throughout the United States and abroad.
The inspiration for Lynn's work stems from her appreciation of the beauty of nature and the human form. Portraiture and figurative painting are particularly rewarding to Lynn, since they allow her to translate the essence of a subject's personality into a piece of fine art.
Lynn's early career in the 1980's focused on watercolor illustration for many different publications in the New York City area, among them Reader's Digest. From there, she transitioned into working in oil, producing landscape, figurative and portrait works. Her commitment to life drawing, plein air landscape and alla prima figurative painting have always been, and continue to be, a crucial component in Lynn's ongoing development as an artist.
Lynn's formal art education includes study at Carnegie-Mellon University, The School of Visual Arts in New York City and the California Art Institute, where she later became an instructor. Throughout her career, she has continued to study and practice traditional drawing and painting principles through various workshops, classes and private instruction. Some teachers Lynn feels particularly indebted to are John Phillip Osborne, John Frederick Murray, Glen Orbik and Jeremy Lipking. In addition to teaching workshops, Lynn now leads a popular Open Studio Figure Painting class in Lafayette, California.
Lynn currently resides in the San Francisco East Bay.
