Lorna works mainly in acrylic on canvas in a realism style. Focusing mainly on landscapes, her work has taken her both around NZ and internationally, in particular Alaska where she travelled widely and many works returned to Alaskan homes. She has also ventured into heritage work for farming families so that the history is never lost. Her love of nature shows in her paintings and through her work she hopes to share the peace, beauty and tranquility of the natural world with her viewers and clients. The old masters have had a great influence on her style and noted ones are George Innes and Albert Beirstadt alongside early New Zealand ones including J. C. Hoyte, Charles Blomfield, John Gully and John Gibb, along with Pietrus Van der Velden a Dutch painter who worked in the Otira area in New Zealand in the mid 1800's Lorna’s works have achieved awards both locally and internationally. Her work is held in private collections both locally and internationally.
