Lyndsey is an eclectic and experimental artist who responds to the world around her and has been since old enough to hold a crayon. A green thumb, nature lover and animal obsessed artist, Lyndsey works in her studio or in the garden (surrounded by beautiful mature trees).
Inspiration comes from the natural world in general. Animals (especially rabbits & horses), plants, landscapes then moving into humour, portrait and statement art. Intrigued by Ned Kelly and his life as much as about Don Quixote in the book by Cervantes. Occasional forays into satire with many Bald Archy entries are another of her pet areas (roasting a politician or admiring Dr Chris Brown!). This varied subject matter (and multiple disciplines) is what drives her creativity. Not an artist who can work on just one theme or in one discipline and that is how Lyndsey is in everyday life - variety is inspiration!
Painting, drawing, printmaking and sculpting in bone, wood, metal and recycled items are her main disciplines.
A finalist in many art competitions such as The Hills Grammar Acquisitive Art Prize, Blacktown Art Prize, Hunters Hill Art Prize, The Bald Archy, Westmead Art Prize to name a few, and has won multiple awards in different disciplines. Her artworks are found in private and public institutions here in Australia and overseas. Lyndsey was honoured to be one of 3 artists involved in bringing "Drawing on Memory" to life for Holocaust Survivor Harry Fransman (featured on Channel 7's Weekend Sunrise).
Education has included a Diploma of Fine Art from The Sydney Gallery School, study at Julian Ashton School of Art, Waikato Polytech and many casual art workshops. Predominantly a self taught artist she is currently working from her own studio and enjoying creating larger sculptures at The Sydney Gallery School Open Studio sculpture sessions with Sam Valenz.
