A professional artist since 2004, John Lacey works primarily in oil, creating expressive and contemporary interpretations of the Australian landscape. His practice has gradually shifted from impressionistic to more abstract explorations, evoking a strong sense of place while allowing space for viewer interpretation.
Born in South Australia in 1947, John initially worked as a draftsman and later as a graphic designer before devoting himself fully to painting. Beginning with watercolour and acrylic, he moved to oil in 2004, a transition that opened new directions in his practice and earned him recognition across Australia. He has since exhibited extensively, holding over 30 solo shows and participating in numerous group exhibitions throughout SA, WA, and NSW. His works are held in private collections nationally and internationally.
