Lyndsey Selley

Lyndsey Selley is a self-taught artist with a background that mixes fine-art, illustration and design. Leaving school she joined Royal Crown Derby as a figurine painter, a role which included a demonstration tour to Canada. Next working as a freelance illustrator and designer she supplied illustrations for cards, childrens books and calendars to major international publishers. She also designed a tableware range called “Storm” for Denby Pottery which is still in stores worldwide.

Since 1994 Lyndsey Selley has concentrated solely on her Wildlife Art. Painting from her own reference photographs gathered from trips to Africa, her style includes both a tight photographic feel and a more recent looser, more atmospheric look. Experimenting with larger brushes, splashes and spatters gives Lyndsey’s later work a raw unfinished look which is very distinctive.

Her award winning paintings are widely collected, and have sold successfully at auction at Christies and through numerous galleries and exhibitions. A range of Lyndsey’s work is published as Limited Edition Prints by Solomon & Whitehead and Lyndsey Selley also has a range of self published prints available.

Lyndsey is proud to support the DSWF by donating work for auction, and also supplying her work to be sold through the DSWF brochure which raises vital funds to aid the foundations conservation work.
Lyndsey Selley is happy to accept commissions and is contactable at her studio at home.

Lyndsey Selley currently resides in Derbyshire with her husband and two children.
