Lyn Cooke
Description: Painter specializing in Wildlife Lyn moved to country Victoria from Melbourne after completing a Diploma of Teaching and a B.A. at Monash University. She has always had an interest in painting and drawing. After working in schools in the Ballarat area for a number of years she chose to leave teaching and has now been painting professionally for over ten years. Lyn is largely a self-taught artist. Meticulous studies of wildlife are usually executed in a mixture of watercolour and gouache. Detail is gradually built up using very fine brushwork. Many layers may be required to achieve the desired result. The bushland setting of her home provides Lyn with many of her painting subjects. Additional inspiration comes from regular trips to other parts of Australia. A keen interest in flora and fauna, particularly Australian birds, is reflected in her paintings. Lyn has been the recipient of numerous art awards and commendations. Her work can be found in private collections throughout Australia and in many other countries and has been featured on television and in articles in newspapers and journals. Paintings have also been reproduced on calendars, greeting cards and as limited edition prints.
