CV & Contact details

The pursuit of masterly quality and technique is a high priority for Lyn Diefenbach. Her paintings are a celebration of her Christian faith and the joy found in life. Her work covers a myriad of subject matter, with her bold florals receiving accolades nationally and internationally. Lyn’s ability to communicate her ideas has entrenched her as a respected and sought-after tutor, with teaching engagements internationally and across Australia. Her exhibitions consistently sell out and her work is now being produced as limited edition prints by Origin Publishing. 

Lyn was accepted into the International Guild of Realism in May 2008 and has Master Pastellist status with the Pastel Society of Australia. She has been featured numerous times in both the International Artist and the Australian Artist magazines as well as the Best of Artists Worldwide Books from Kennedy Publishing. She was invited by Kennedy’s to produce her own soft cover book “The Art of Lyn Diefenbach”.

Her paintings are represented in major regional and private collections within Australian and overseas. Her work is available from Lasting Impressions Gallery in Kenilworth (QLD) and the David Mackay Harrison Gallery in Ballina (NSW) as well as by private commission. Contact details are:
