After training and study in painting, drawing, glass engraving and graphic arts, Dybka went on to create works which are on display in Australian public collections.
Dybka's works are privately owned by Hua Guofeng, the former Chinese premier, Lord Snowdon, Sir Roden Cutler and Neville Wran.
Dybka was born Anne Ruth Mary Hutchings on 4 September 1921 in Portsmouth, England, and she died at age 85 in Sydney, Australia on 11 May 2007.
After migrating to Australia, Dybka continued her training and studied at the George Bell School in Melbourne in the late 1950s.
[5] During her career as an artist, Dybka had worked for Guy Boyd, as a decorator, and as a glass designer for Old Chelsea glassware.
They contribute to the historic urban character of The Rocks, and are now home to the Argyle Gallery, which features Australian artists and Aboriginal artwork.
She is quoted as saying that "Glass Engraving is a precise art…You can't hide any little mistake that a lapse in concentration can easily cause".
Dybka, along with Patricia Robinson, Annette Kalnins, Cecil Renfield and Alasdair C Gordon all contributed to the exhibition, which had a focus on the methods of presentation of the glass works.
As part of this exhibit, Dybka commented that she preferred using "subjects which had life and movement", drawing on themes from poetry, drama and the natural world.
[14] Dybka also engraved on blown glass pieces by Julio Santos, Brian Hurst and Setsuko Ogishi.
Dybka also collaborated with and combined works with jewellers Tony Kean and Angela Morrell to produce pendants, brooches and earrings as part of this exhibition.
The gallery owner, Betty Beaver, was well known for her collection of merry-go-round, carousel and nursery book whimsical themed works.
[15] Dybka created a miniature engraved glass carousel, which revolved to the music used to greet guests to the gallery.
[16] [5] [5] Situated at Atherden & Playfair Streets in The Rocks, stands a bronze statue that Dybka was chosen to produce.
Dybka was chosen as a local artist to immortalise Biggles, as an important character to the area, and the statue was unveiled on 16 March 1995.
The Senate Chamber of Parliament House in Australia features Dybka's engraving for the shield of state crests, and the slumped glass Commonwealth Star, which sits behind the president's chair.
