ARTIST BIO

I was born in UK and came to Australia with my family as a Ten Pound pom in 1972.

I have always lived and holidayed near the coast, settling originally in Largs Bay. I married and had two daughters and spent 12 years living in a small country town on the Yorke Peninsula ands now live in Woodcroft.

I love the beach and coast with all its many changes and moods and this is  often reflected in my art work as I do love to pain the sea and its everychanging moods. 

I took up art regularly when I was undergoing treatment for breast cancer in 2012. Since then I havent looked back . I find it a terrific outlet for creativity and relaxation.I was lucky enought to paint and assist teaching at a local Gallery in Glenelg when i lived in the area and I was inspired by the many techniques and styles of art, where there is no such thing as bad art and that each peice has many interpretatations to whoever is viewing it. 

I enjoy using all types of mediums, originally oils and now mainly acrylic on canvas,  but I like to experiment with texture, watercolours, inks, resin and natural products. I am always exploring new techniques and styles and this is reflected in the wide variety of art work that I produce. 

I hope you enjoy my art as much as I enjoy creating it. Please check my FB profile lindasartonline for recent works
