Del Kathryn Barton



Australian Archibald Prize winner Del Kathryn Barton fascinates me.



I've certainly found it difficult to drag myself away from any online gallery (i wish to be lucky enough to see her work in "real life" one day).



Claire Armstrong, from Art and Australia Magazine, put it best when she wrote that Del's paintings 'encapsulate the exciting crossovers between traditional techniques and contemporary design and illustration', something she remarked is a hallmark of much emerging Australian art.









When is she going to publish a book? I would die to see the whole collection of her works!
