Sam's Early Morn Etching Ed. 3 of 8

This HAND PULLED print (not a reproduction) called "Sam's Early Morn" is one of my most intricate works to date. Inspired by a tutor's kindly comment that my works resembled that of Samuel Palmer (an awesome printmaker). So I researched his works and this is my homage to his work "Early Morn". Whilst keeping the composition similar I have added in all things in my mind that are iconically Australian and have meaning to me. I love nature so there is a beautiful Morton Bay Fig, a bilby, a grass tree and other Australian natives. The spectacular Sydney Harbour Bridge sits in the background of my version of Observatory Hill joining the north to south of the city I live in.
*** Please note that the dimensions shown for the size of the work are including the frame. The hand pulled print area is 20 cm x 14.5 cm. It is not to scale in the display photo.

Taking a very varied approach to her chosen subjects Lyndsey is somewhat of a chameleon, never staying within one genre or style. Lyndsey chooses her colour palettes with care, aiming to create tranquil, calm even meditative works or enhance with bright hues and bold strokes along with many other physical applications of paint, pen, pencil and more. Flitting from each discipline as inspiration hits, Lyndsey is a responsive artist.

Some career highlights have been works featured in the media from her many and varied Bald Archy portrait artworks.

Also 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 includes a Diploma of Fine Art from The Sydney Gallery School, study at Julian Ashton School of Art, Waikato Polytech and many casual art workshops after being predominantly a self taught artist.
