About the Artist:
Lynette Slape:
When Lynette was a little girl, her parents took her to
art and history museums. Like many
children, Lynette was very bored.
Because of her youth, she did not yet understand how important art
was. While in school, Lynette was given
the choice to take classes in the fine arts or music. Since Lynette didn’t know anything about
music she chose the fine arts. Once in
college, Lynette could not decide on what major to choose. This drove her crazy. It finally occurred to her, that art is what
made her happy.
“I had a moment when a light bulb turns on in your
head. I began to get better at my
artwork, which felt really good. I took
a few years off from school to work at Starbucks and apply to art schools. For example, I got into Pratt Art Institute,
and San Francisco Art Institute. But now
I’m at Lane Community College wanting to transfer to University of Oregon in
fall of 2013. I will major in art and
minor in creative writing.” ~Lynette
