Sydney Harbour Unplugged Ed. 1 of 4

Sydney Harbour what a gorgeous spot! But sometimes in my mind when I hear the newsreader say "as much water as Sydney Harbour" in context to a drought, some wastage, irrigation controversy or rain event I imagine the harbour draining away. This gives me an imagined visual of the space left behind and the huge volumes involved. This work is a hand drawn visual interpretation lithographic print. It is also a visual metaphor for how little value we put on water in general. It's usually there when we turn on the tap, it's cheap and even when it is mismanaged we don't really get up much of a sweat. Will we value it more if one day it suddenly disappears....I think so!
This work is classed as a US (unique state) as it is one of 4 printed (each unique due to the process) but the only one I have hand coloured.

Lyndsey is an Australian (NZ born) contemporary, eclectic artist creating unique paintings, prints and sculptures inspired by nature from her Sydney studio.

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.
