As an extension to his artistic nature, he obtained a certificate in art and went on to win awards as a visual artist and in film making. A prolific creator, his talents are diverse. He has written several plays and now, an author, completed a book entitled, 'The Lost World of the Maya.' This research both challenges and expands history's understanding of the Maya civilisation.

He has also written research reports on subjects as diverse as anatomy, astronomy and mathematics.Lindsay's artwork has featured in several group and solo art exhibitions, including a fine-art photography exhibition entitled Skyharp. This project documents the changing light of the natural environment and its effect on an outdoor metallic sculpture which aligned with the equinox and the solstice. The exhibit included an audio recording, an aeolian harp, sound made by the wind influencing the sculpture. A documentary on its construction was produced, (Perfect Almost). A research report detailing a method of accurately calculating the mathematics of planetary orbits, using geometry formed part of the artwork presentation. Restless by nature, Lindsay has travelled to 42 countries across all seven continents of the world.
