Dick Lyne

My Art Friend has a new exhibition starting this evening.

Dick Lyne picked up a paintbrush for the first time at age 65 after a life spent as a bushman, Lyne worked mainly in the King Country and Matakana Island and as such these areas are well represented in his work.

For a self taught artist Lyne has enjoyed critical acclaim and success with paintings hanging in private collections in England, France, the USA and Australia as well as New Zealand.

His work was recently purchased for the Wallace Trust Collection and was exhibited at the Sarjeant Gallery, Whanganui in Song of the Woods in 2011.
