Doris Golder is a renowned local artist whose rural paintbox consists of one of Lockhart Shire’s most historical and important resources – wool.
Washed, combed and undyed, Doris has been using naturally coloured wool to create an amazing array of landscapes and portraits since the early 1980’s. From Slim Dusty and Greg Norman to Bob Hawke, Tim Fischer and many more famous faces, Doris has captured their very essence by using this unique and highly skilled medium.
Now housed in the Doris Golder Art Gallery within Green’s Gunyah Museum in Lockhart, the portraits and pictures created by Doris continue to enthrall and amaze visitors and locals alike.
