LYN MARSHALL

Artist Lyne Marshall paints feelings using ambiguous landscape elements to invite the viewer to explore her world from their perspective. This is better expressed in the following verse she wrote for her Sub Rosa series, which still relates to her subsequent paintings.
Below the surface of all things lie numerous dimensions. Landscapes encompass many aspects and confirm the imprint of humanity. Feelings, emerging and floating in the atmosphere, are more than skin deep. They anchor themselves, from a bird's eye view, into organic shapes, or fall away poetically into infinity.
The artist works in her mountain home and farm, where she paints in isolation in her bush studio. Since completing a visual arts degree in 1994 at USQ in Toowoomba, Marshall has produced around 16 solo exhibitions and exhibited in Japan, USA and twice at the Shanghai Art Fair. Investigation and research are strong components of her arts practice and in February she wrote, illustrated and published Gleaner or Gladiator; the struggle to create, a full colour book on the creative process as seen through an artist’s eyes. The book, which has been described as a rare gift, received a positive review in the July issue of the Australian Art Review magazine.
In January 2007, Lyne won the Stockland People’s Choice Art Award. She is represented in both private and public collections in Australia and overseas and in several state galleries.
