Lianne Jedeikin Goldsmith is a Zimbabwe-born artist who has lived in Los Angeles for 37 years. She has studied with Rembrandt scholar Zhenya Gershman for eight years and continues her training in portraiture, life drawing, art history, large-scale painting, and traditional media including oil, pastel, and charcoal.
Her work has evolved through an ongoing exploration of colonialism, culture, and identity. Her current paintings consider the relationship between aging and desire, particularly how women experience sensuality, friendship, and their changing sense of self.
