Her career, spanning over seventy years, was marked by a restless spirit and a willingness to experiment, taking the viewer on a journey through various artistic movements.

From realism to Post-Impressionism, Preston's work evolved with unceasing verve and freshness, as she drew inspiration from the world around her. Her unique blend of styles, including an Aboriginal-inspired approach, cemented her reputation as one of Australia's most important female artists of the 20th century.

This biography offers a fascinating insight into Preston's life and art, shedding light on a remarkable woman who refused to be bound by convention.
