About Me

Carlynne Hershberger, CPSA
From painting as a young college student I detoured into fashion illustration at the Art Institute of Ft. Lauderdale to graphic design and now I'm a painter, teacher, author, blogger, wife, mother of 3 - two I raised and reunited with the one lost to the adoption industry. I'm also a grandmother of 7. All of these roles overlap and intertwine to make for a wonderfully interesting life.
