In past years Lorraine has participated in numerous workshops and has completed studies in Fine Art and Design, printmaking, bookbinding and figure drawing.

Over the years Lorraine studied with the Brisbane Institute of Art and attended various specialised workshops, Lorraine enjoys working and experimenting with a variety of media and subject matters.

She thrives on the experimental challenge and endeavours to express her own style while combining mixed media, collage and mono printing.

Her passion to work with different textural effects provides her with infinite possibilities to create her artwork.

Her artworks are represented in numerous private collections throughout Australia and overseas, including the Brisbane Parliamentary Annexe. She has won several awards for her works in oils, watercolours, acrylics and mixed media.

Life drawing, portrait drawing and seascapes give a balance to her abstract expressionism.

My current body of work for this exhibition consists of spontaneous line work, discovering shape, creating image and form with minimal colour.
