    --------------------------
    G. Augustine Lynas is a freelance artist /author who has lived and worked in New York City since 1965. Although he is an experienced graphic designer and photographer, his first love is sculpture, especially ephemeral work where time is an important element. He gained worldwide recognition as a sand sculptor with the publication of his book Sandsong and the documentary film of that name (now on You Tube). Lynas’ sculptures can be found in seven NYC parks in concrete, bronze, wood and ceramics and in many private collections. For twenty years Lynas was an adjunct professor of Communications Design at Pratt Institute.

    Lynas also paints, draws, designs games and writes and illustrates books including: The ABCs of Central Park, The ABCs of Brooklyn (with photographer Peter Vadnai), The ABCs of Riverside Park, The Flying Disc in Flying Colors, and several others. Lynas has now written and illustrated his first interactive e-book called Tammy & Blue and a race against time. It’s a story about a child who forgets to color her own skin. Available on iBooks.

    Lynas, a pioneer in the flying disc world, is known as “Circus” because of his tendency to do tricks with Frisbees. He was recently inducted into the Freestyler’s Hall of Fame. At age 82, he is still physically active; biking, sculpting, playing table tennis, disc sports and is an avid Aerobie enthusiast. He is married, has three children and three grandchildren.
