Geoff Dyer
Born in Hobart in March 1947, Geoff Dyer graduated from the Tasmanian School of art in 1968.
One of his most influential teachers there was the Head of the Fine Arts Department Jack Carrington Smith, who had won the Archibald Prize in 1963 for a painting of the poet and professor James McAuley.
This was forty years before Geoff would win the same prize for his portrait of the Tasmanian novelist, Richard Flanagan.
Geoff paints textured canvases that present the world that he inhabits. A world of landscapes that evoke emotions.
