Meaghan Lynch
Meaghan Lynch lives in Brooklyn, NY, with her family. She is an interdisciplinary artist and designer. She spends her time between Brooklyn, the Adirondacks, and Ireland. Her career spans design, teaching, and illustration. She has been a founding partner in a design firm, a studio prospect for over a decade. Professionally, she has collaborated on award-winning projects. As an illustrator, plants are the subject of her art. She taught undergraduate and graduate courses at various universities in the US and abroad. While establishing her design practice and teaching, she became interested in the natural world-and plants specifically- not only as her material palette, but as worthy of individual consideration in their own right. This led her to study Botanical Illustration at the New York Botanical Gardens. Her cross-disciplinary career focuses on our connection to the natural world through careful examination and illustration of plants.
Erynn Richardson
Erynn Richardson is a drawing-based artist working in Southern California. Her work explores memory, nature, and loss. Through drawing, she records the world as she experiences it; the shifting climate reshapes the land, the slow erosion of time, and the way memory fades until it becomes a ghost.
Richardson earned her BA and MA in Painting from CSU Northridge and completed her MFA in Printmaking at CSU Long Beach. She is a professor of drawing, printmaking, and design at the College of the Desert.
