REGINA LAW
ABOUT REGINA LAW
Regina Law is a New South Wales based artist, living and working for the last 30 years in the surrounds of the Dharawahl National Park in south-western Sydney.
Originally from Germany, she migrated to Australia at the age of six. She grew up in the southern suburbs of Sydney, where she was greatly inspired by her wanderings in the Royal National Park.
Having obtained a Bachelor of Interior Design from the University of Technology Sydney, Regina worked in the design industry before starting on her own ventures in creating high-end Photo Albums and furniture design. In the last 15 years, she has devoted herself fulltime to her art practice, which encompasses Painting, Drawing and Sculpture.
Law’s paintings are her emotional response to her experience of the landscape, the changing of colours in the light, its shapes, rhythms and smells.
Her Ceramic work is also greatly influenced by nature and the human form.
