PATRICIA WYNNE [http://www.patriciawynne.com/Home.html] is an artist,
illustrator and teacher who has drawn animals her whole life. After
studying printmaking with Mauricio Lasansky at the University of Iowa
and embarking on a gallery career, Wynne moved to Detroit where she
taught printmaking at the University of Windsor, Ontario, Canada and
drawing at Wayne State University. A position as scientific
illustrator at the University of Michigan followed and with it an
entirely new avenue for drawing animals opened. Since that moment, the
study of animals became a daily discovery process and her drawings and
prints were flooded with revelations about animals of all kinds. It
was full steam ahead with a move to NEW YORK City and a diverse
freelance career. Drawing animals for scientists, ILLUSTRATIONS FOR
_Scientific American_, the _New York Times_ and the _Wall Street_
_Journal_, characters for Star Wars, producing over two hundred books
for adults and children, teaching animal drawing at the Central Park
Zoo, American Museum of Natural History, Maritime Aquarium, Bronx
Botanical Garden, as well as gallery shows, juried exhibitions and
workshops have kept Wynne very busy. These days she spends more time
than ever making prints. Wynne lives and draws today in New York City
across from Central Park with her husband Maceo, two cats, six
lizards, three turtles, four canaries, and one hundred fishes.
