Born in Sydney in 1966, Angela Lober started her career as a Landscape Architect in 1990. She subsequently completed a Post Graduate Diploma in Visual Art (Plant and Wildlife Illustration) at Newcastle University in 1995.
She has been exhibiting in Australia and internationally since 2000 and has a special interest in the uniqueness of Australian Flora, particularly the productive rainforest species of the east coast.
She uses watercolour paintings to capture nature's detail with colour and form.
In 2012 she was awarded a Silver-gilt Medal at the RHS London Botanical Art Show, and in 2014 she won the Celia Rosser Medal for Excellence in Botanic Art in Melbourne.
She paints full time and teaches at the Royal Botanic Garden, Sydney, as well as serving on the committee of the Florilegium Society.
