‘My work explores themes of memory, distance and connection through the language of landscape.’
Hello, and welcome!
I'm Lara Tees, a Melbourne based artist, and I create contemporary landscapes. My work has been described as atmospheric, emotional and evocative, and my paintings have been shown in exhibitions and galleries across Australia.
I love the Australian landscape and I take much of my inspiration from the colours and textures of this amazing country I'm fortunate to call home.
My work captures the experience of being in a place and the feelings that it evokes. I hope my work transports you to those places, so I can share them with you.
Current solo exhibition


Come away with me
5 - 30 October, 2025
My solo exhibition 'Come away with me' at the NaNY Gallery in Warrandyte is inspired by the Australian landscape and the emotional connections we form with place.
Each painting is a reflection of how landscapes hold stories - personal, collective, and imagined - and how we carry those stories within ourselves.
