HSIN LIN, a Melbourne-based award-winning artist, specialises in contemporary floral paintings.

Lin’s art is a vibrant reminder of life’s potential and the power of nature.
How many years have you been creating and showcasing your art?
I’ve been devoting myself to my signature contemporary floral series for the past 10 years. Each flower I paint represents life and has a unique symbolic meaning.
How would you describe the style and themes of your work?
My art captures the beauty and serenity of floral motifs. The fine details, such as the tiny petals, are developed through ten or more layers of paint. Although still-life is considered a traditional genre, each object in my paintings stands for a different meaning and has its own story
Are you earning from your art?
I was featured in Australia Artist’s Palette magazine in 2017, which was a turning point for me. My work has been recognized in various local art shows, and my artworks are held in private collections both in Australia and internationally. Selling through galleries and online has allowed me to reach a larger audience.
What feedback have you received so far?
My collectors often tell me that my work is the first piece that grabs their guests’ attention. People enjoy the beautiful details from afar or up close, and a great statement piece can be a conversation starter.
Do you have a day job? Or are you a full-time artist?
I am a full-time artist.
Any upcoming projects?
I recently launched the LTD ED Prints of my latest award-winning artwork: A Thousand Ways to Love – Acorn Banksia, Eucalyptus, Amaranthus, Celosia Cristata and Yellow Everlastings, following a successful solo exhibition at the Victorian Artists Society in January 2024. I also have work in the permanent collection of the Mental Health Foundation Australia and have been recognized in their National Mental Health Month Art Competitions.
