Sydney
Beautiful Birds & Botanicals
Artworks: 7
Lara is a self-taught Sydney-based artist, painting birds and botanicals in watercolour. She was born in South Africa, and moved to the UK and Japan, before finally settling in Australia in 2013. She has always enjoyed art throughout her life, but it wasn’t until she lived in Australia and fell in love with the native birds that she found her true obsession.
“For me, painting is an act of learning to see, relishing and remembering the countless colours, patterns and shapes the natural world has to offer. Watercolours are the perfect medium for capturing the soft feathers, dynamic poses and quirky personalities of birds.”
