Originally from Walthamstow in North East London, Glynnis lived, studied and worked in the North East from 1967 - 2000.

In 2000 she moved to Alston in the North Pennines. Whilst continuing to work as a teacher she studied part time at Newcastle College, Northumbria University and Sunderland University. In 2004, having gained a BA(Hons) in Fine Art, she gave up teaching and began to paint full time.
