Vale Lynne McQuillan

Western Riverina Arts share our heartfelt sympathies with the Leeton art community and the family of Lynne McQuillan. A talented artist and three-time Penny Paniz Prize winner, Lynne was dedicated to the arts, sharing her knowledge and volunteering her time at Leeton Museum and Gallery. She will be deeply missed.

A message from the Leeton Art Society: “It is with great sadness that I must inform you that our beautiful friend and fellow artist Lynne McQuillan passed away this morning at 5 am.

Lynne was a founding member of the Leeton Art Society Inc. and a passionate supporter of art in Leeton. Lynne shared her artistic talent freely with all of us.
She was quiet, gentle and a kind lady who never wanted to draw attention to herself.

Lynne was a winner of our Penny Paniz Acquisitive art exhibition many time over the years and won lots of other prizes for her artworks.

She was well known for her beautiful Pastel artworks and we always looked forward to Lynne’s demonstrations for us at Tuesday Casual Art mornings.

RIP our beautiful talented artist and compassionate good friend, we will miss you Lynne!

Our sincere condolences to Rob and the family at this very sad time.”
