Profile
Childhood Farnham Art School Saturday sessions mentioning artistic ability were squashed at an early age by worried parents and later disregarded by life choices until breaking out again in the 90’s when time allowed for participation in a pre-degree foundation course in Art and Design. From that point on Lindsay became hooked on Watercolour and has spent the intervening years concentrating on obscuring or enhancing reality with atmospheric impressions and techniques using pure watercolour, often without preliminary drawing or the use of other media.
She is now a respected Watercolour Artist undertaking many commissions with her work shown in group exhibitions throughout the southern counties, London and France.

Inspiration is drawn from anything and everything, landscapes, buildings, people, animals, flowers -there will be something glimpsed that just catches my eye and makes me want to paint it for pure pleasure.
My theme is to improve on reality. If it makes a picture in my mind - I want to enhance it on paper.”
