Meet the Instructor: Lynne Chapman (Sheffield, UK)



Lynne Chapman
Sheffield, North Yorkshire, UK

Lynne is an award-winning, children’s book illustrator, with over 30 published books and a BAHons in Printed Textiles from Middlesex University in London. Lynne runs Sketchcrawl North, a very active USK group, who meet monthly. She enjoys pushing the SketchCrawl boundaries, with events like Tour de Sketch and Mad Hatter’s Tea Party. Lynne has lectured in drawing and illustration at both the Sheffield College and Hallam University, but for the last 12 years, has been travelling the UK (on the train, sketching fellow travellers as she goes), giving lectures and workshops for festivals and schools, inspiring both adults and children to have fun with drawing. She is a compulsive sketcher and her sketchbooks are her most treasured possessions.
