Welcome

Lainie Edwards

Australian Art Historian

About me

I live in rural New South Wales – just about as far as imaginable from the action of the period in Australian art history that I am interested in.  I love Australian art and there is nothing more exciting to me than delving into the archives and piecing together past lives. This website is my way of giving back to the artists who have brought me so much joy and purpose, and I  hope that it helps to re-shine a light on their work and their importance to  Australian art history.
