Using international opportunities to practice and research art, she is the recipient of numerous artist residencies including: the Hocschule fur Bildende Kunst in Dresden, Germany; Vishwa Bharati Kala Bhavan, Santiniketan, India; the Bau Institute Otranto, Italy; and the Danish Arts Council Hirsholmene, Denmark. In her paintings she records landscapes and natural phenomena while considering the variety of influences on our aesthetic appreciation of environment. She is represented locally by the Triangle Gallery in San Francisco. The experiences of making art directly inform her pedagogical approaches, helping students discover personal insights and narratives, while exposing them to alternative points of view. Art and non-art majors are guided by assignments and dialogue emphasizing the balance between theory and practice, and developing both intellectual and intuitive skills such as: visual literacy, creative inquiry, and craftsmanship. Her current passions involve collaborative interdisciplinary projects and curricula with her Dominican colleagues. Lynn is an assistant professor of art at Dominican University of California, and currently Acting Chair of the Art Department. She received her BFA in Painting at the Savannah College of Art and Design and MFA at the California College of the Arts.
