More Info
I have been an artist all my life. I began selling my work in high school. In 1996 I received my Associates degree in Communications form the New England School of Communications. I began teaching art professionally in 1998 at the Art Studios of Bangor, and became the director in 2000. I started Scrap-booking after my first child was born in 2002, and drastically cut back on teaching after my twins were born in 2004. I currently am a freelance painter/designer and my work (paintings, cards and jewelry) is available in shops throughout Maine. Select merchandise available through www.cafepress.com/lindsaymay
