Born 1970, Lydia settled in Melbourne in 2001 with her husband and three daughters, having lived in New Zealand, Europe and the Middle East for many years.
Her works reflect that passion as they are large-scale raw, expressive representations that capture the essence of the land and leave you wanting to be there. Her use of vibrant colours, dripping paint and textural effects combined with a progressive method define Lydia’s signature style.
Artist’s Statement:
"I do not plan a painting, but let the painting guide me. I begin by randomly applying paint to the canvas and within minutes the beginnings of a landscape appear to me (like figures in marble) and from there, I develop it further. It doesn’t always turn out how I first envisaged but I’ve learnt to go with the flow and enjoy the ride."
