Garlyn graduated with honors from The College of Saint Rose in 1993 with a Bachelors degree in Graphic Design. After college she worked as a historic site interpreter and a stained glass artisan. Garlyn has spent the last two decades raising her three children and working at her hometown school, all the while painting various subject matters. In 2020, the pandemic lockdown provided an opportunity for Garlyn to contemplate her authentic place in the art world. She began making the kind of art she wanted to see more of. Weathered, well-worn, rustic, oxidized surfaces began to emerge and dissipate into wispy cloud mists and stormy seas. Her small studies have since evolved into much larger works. Garlyns paintings are shown in numerous local art exhibits and displayed in private homes across the country. Garlyn is a member of Mohawk Valley Center for the Arts,Cooperstown Art Association, and The Smithy Gallery. ↑ less
