Workshop Description:

A 3 day Pastel Workshop conducted by award winning and highly recognised Australian artist, Lyn Diefenbach.

For all pastel enthusiasts, this is a workshop not to be missed!

Instructor Background:

Born and raised in Yeppoon in Queensland, Australia in a family of artists and craftspeople, Lyn Diefenbach has a brush in her hands almost her entire life.

The pursuit of masterly quality and technique is a high priority for Lyn Diefenbach. Her work is imbued with a celebration of her faith and of life. Lyn's paintings cover a myriad of subject matter, with her bold florals consistently receiving accolades nationally and internationally. She sees each painting as a vehicle for self expression and a stepping stone of understanding both of herself and the subject. With each stepping stone of understanding comes a deep reverence for the rich tapestry of life. Her ability to communicate her ideas has entrenched her as a respected and sought-after tutor, with teaching engagements internationally and across Australia.

Lyn was accepted into the International Guild of Realism in May 2008 and holds Master Pastellist status with the Pastel Society of Australia. In 2019 she was awarded Eminent Pastellist status in the International Association of Pastel Societies. In 2015 Lyn achieved signature status with the Pastel Society of America, and in 2016 was  the recipient of Pastellist of the Year with the Pastel Society of Australia.

Lyn has been featured numerous times in the International Artist, Pastel Journal and the Australian Artist magazines.

Total cost for the 3 days for Kyneton Art Group members is $240 and $280 for non-members.
