Previous Member

Tanya graduated in Architecture from the University of Sydney in 1965. Her subsequent studies included a Diploma in Education from UNE and several years of Graphic Design at Randwick TAFE.

In 1969 she commenced classes in lithography at the Workshop Arts Centre with Michael West.

Tanya has been a teacher, tutor and printmaker for many years, exhibiting in group and solo exhibitions in Australia and overseas.

Her work is represented in National and International collections and she has been commissioned by the Print Council of Australia to produce an edition of 50 prints.

Tanya uses a variety of print media, particularly lithography, etching and lino. Recently she has combined her interest in painting with printmaking to produce a series of hand coloured collagraphs from cardboard plates.

This medium has enabled her to work at a larger scale, creating bolder images that can be developed beyond a limited edition of identical prints.
