Lyn with "Apricot Nectar"

The pursuit of masterly quality and technique is a high priority for Lyn Diefenbach. Her paintings are a celebration of her Christian faith and the joy found in life.  Her work covers a myriad of subject matter, with her bold florals receiving accolades nationally and internationally. Lyn’s ability to communicate her ideas has entrenched her as a respected and sought-after tutor. Following a very successful workshop in France in 2008, Lyn will be teaching in New Zealand and Italy in 2009. Her last 3 exhibitions have sold out and her work is now being produced as limited edition prints by Origin Publishing.   

Lyn was accepted into the International Guild of Realism in May 2008 and has Master Pastellist status with the Pastel Society of Australia. She has feature articles published in the International Artist (October/November 2007, August/September 2006, and June/July 2005) and the Australian Artist (September 1999/ August 2002).  Her work “Ruffled Joy” was selected for the International Artist book “100 ways to Paint Flowers and Gardens”. Her paintings are represented in major regional and private collections within Australia and overseas.

Villa Madonna has evolved into a retreat for artists where they can holiday with their tutors and be inspired to leap ahead in their artistic endeavors. Jakki Boucaut and her husband Russell have created this artists' retreat for both budding and experienced artists. Here at Villa Madonna they can work together and share a myriad of experiences artistic, historical, cultural and culinary. Jakki and Russell will ensure that your artist holiday experience as part of a Villa Madonna retreat will be a vacation that you will always remember.

They have worked with and without builders for the last 7 years nurturing the villa, and the idea of sharing Cottanello and surrounds with artists and people of like mind gradually grew. Jakki and Russell have always had a love affair with everything Italian, and were married in 1990 in Piazza del Campidoglio in Rome.

Currently they spend approximately 6 months of the year in Queensland during the Australian summer, and in the European spring, they return to their home at Villa Madonna in Italy
