Hidden Heart Painting

Lindsey was born in the UK, she has lived & created in Hong Kong for nearly 40 years. As the founder of the ‘Hong Kong Youth Arts Foundation’, she has been a pioneer in the arts in Hong Kong for the past 30+ years, her work has focused primarily on the performing arts, writing, directing & producing. In 1997 Lindsey was awarded an MBE on the Birthday Honours list for her work in the field of youth arts and in 2006 as an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for her commitment & contribution to UK arts overseas. She is a mixed media artist who works both digitally and on original mixed media works, her process is non-linear and intuitive, allowing ideas and aesthetics to emerge organically through playful exploration. One choice invites the next in a call and response of visual themes. She layers diverse materials such as acrylic paint, printed and decorative papers, pencil, charcoal & photographic transfers without predetermined goals. Chance and curiosity guide her hand as colours, textures and compositions emerge. For further information please check out her Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lindsey_McAlister
