Helen was born into an artistic family and encouraged to draw from an early age. After some twenty years working as a commercial illustrator she felt the need to explore and broaden her skills in fine art using the mediums of drawing, pastels, oils and watercolour.
She has developed a unique style over a career spanning 60 years and enjoys capturing the atmosphere and charm of her favourite subjects, which include older style homes and historic houses, both interiors and exteriors, and the tranquility of country subjects and still life. She likes to paint her subjects on site, working with dark against light, colour against colour and tone against tone – this is the way she gets expression into my work. Her art has been well received and sought after, being held in collections in Australia and overseas. This has led to teaching classes and invitations to workshops and judging throughout Australiaover the last 27 years. Helen is a Fellow of the Royal Art Society of New South Wales and a Member of the Australian Watercolour Institute since 1991. She has had numerous Solo and Combined Exhibitions and has won over 130 First prizes in major art competitions around Australia. Helen has also illustrated three books Helen now lives in Sawtell NSW and gives classes in all mediums at Sawtell Art Group. Website: www.helengoldsmithartist.com |
