Wendy Lessick Bookatz

Creator of narratives - Visual, textual & aural, on-screen, online & in print.

Fine art - on canvas, board & on paper.

For the past few years, I have been making artwork about violence against women. Today I paint 26 canvases in memory of Sarah Chaya Krikst 1901-1918. I have no other way to express my profound sorrow at what has happened and is happening in Israel and Gaza.

I am currently pursuing a Social Media Marketing diploma through the Australian Institute of Management intending to deepen my understanding of digital platforms.

My personal art practice was deemed not “marketable” in terms of Social Media Marketing. This has led me to create digital artworks and slogans that serve as an adjunct to my usual practice, all of which are showcased on my dedicated website, www.WendyLessickGallery.com

I am feeling overwhelmed by recent world events, and at this time need to take a step back from social media.

I have won numerous fine art awards.
