Award-winning and internationally collected, Lilburn was 'a perpetual walker, or wanderer, he drew constantly, filling pocket-sized sketchbooks and later, back in the studio, much larger sheets with fast, incisive visual accounts of the people, places and things around him. Impromptu notes, asides, diagrams, collaged fragments and revisions were all part of the process.'
Maps and map-making, landscape and intaglio printmaking were consistent sources of his inspiration. There is a vital narrative interest in his images, which are packed with topographical, historical and anecdotal information. With friend and fellow artist Jim Savage he established Occasional Press, a publishing imprint, in 2006.
