After returning from abroad in the early 1920's Thea Proctor, quickly became a prominent figure in Sydney's art world and passionate campaigner for modernist design.
Proctor often produced fashion and graphical illustrations for the pages of The Home magazine, which was also a publication by Syndey Ure Smith.
Whilst considered a talented draftswoman in her field, it was not until 1932 that Art and Australia published a print issue exclusively featuring her woodcuts, much like her respected counterpart and friend Margaret Preston.
Proctor's woodcuts are uniquely stylistic in design and colour. Often completed with bold dark outlines, she was known to finish her works with deep intense colouring or simply just left in the original black ink, a sign of both the artist's contentment and confidence in her practice.
From a private estate in Sydney.
