Iconic

11 Feb 2009 1 comments

I often discuss with clients what imagery is seen as being 'iconic' in regards to a particular artists work. I thought a list may prove useful and so I have started one on the blog - please feel free to add your own suggestions!

Sidney Nolan - Ned Kelly series.
John Olsen - Frog imagery
Tim Storrier - Blaze Line [burning rope] and coals [evening works seem to be particularly popular]
Euan Macleod - Walking male figures in a landscape
Charles Blackman - Alice series
Arthur Boyd - 'Pulpit Rock' and 'Bride' series
Tim Maguire - Flower and Berries imagery
Garry Shead - D.H. Lawerence series
