About Annette C. Byrne
The illustrator, decorative artist, designer of stained glass, calligrapher, and portrait painter Annette Cremin Byrne studied painting at the Art Students League (1937-39) when the instructors were William C. Palmer, Jon Corbino, James Michael Newell, and Edmund Yaghjian; later she took instruction from the superb draftsman and figure painter Robert Brackman in Mystic, Connecticut (1953-60). Byrne taught privately and at the Art Institute of Chicago, in addition to working as a commercial artist and illustrating children’s books. Byrne established a studio residence on Ridge Avenue in Evanston, Illinois where she lived with her architect-husband. She exhibited her work at the Directors Art Club in New York, at Chicago’s Union League, at the Evanston Women’s Club, and at the Illinois State Fair; in addition, she had several one-woman shows in Evanston. |
