Next up is Australian artist Grace Cossington-Smith, (1892-1984), whose early works showing the domestic life of Australia during the first World War brought her to prominence.

Post WWI her bold use of colour shone in such works as The Laquer Room, 1936.

Cossington Smith is remembered for her light filled domestic interiors that became a feature of her later years.

She had a major retrospective at the Art Gallery of New South Wales in the early 1970’s, then ceased painting. She died in 1984.
