Lynsey is a comic artist and illustrator exploring everyday observations, overheard conversations and historical events.
Originally from Texas, she always had a passion for illustrating, needlework and fiber art and grew up sewing quilts and clothing along with drawing editorial comics for the local newspaper. Lynsey received her BFA in Fashion Design from the University of North Texas in 2005, moved to New York, and worked in the fashion design industry for the likes of Betsey Johnson and Ralph Lauren while always writing and painting. To satisfy this artistic notion, she received her MFA in Illustration from the Fashion Institute of Technology in 2015. She is working on freelance illustrations, comics and commissions out of her Brooklyn studio, piled high with tchotchkes, fabrics and paint.
Clients include: D Magazine, The Hockaday School, Cherry Bombe Magazine, Radish Lab, Coral & Tusk, Center for NYC Neighborhoods
