Lucy studied French and Drama at Manchester University and Acting at Central School of Speech and Drama. Before taking up painting full time she worked as an actor in theatre, television and film, as a community arts practitioner, as a teacher, and at BAFTA.

​

Lucy moved back to Wales with her family in 2007 and lives near Llandrindod. After many years of dreaming about it Lucy finally took up painting after a car crash in 2018. And so, despite being born in 1969, she describes herself as an “emerging artist.”

Lucy paints stunning, atmospheric landscapes and seascapes which are full of movement and fluidity. She particularly loves to paint the countryside of Mid Wales​ and the Cardiganshire coast, near Llangrannog.

She has exhibited at Hay Castle, Erwood Craft Centre, Celf O Gwmpas, Theatre Brycheiniog, The Radnor Fringe Festival, The Radnorshire Museum, MOMA Machynlleth, Sea and Slate Gallery Llangrannog, The Lost Arc Rhayader,  Mid Wales Arts Centre and with the Radnorshire Artists at The Hymns.

Upcoming exhibitions include Oriel Plas Glyn y Weddw, Found in Brecon, Hay castle and Wyeside Arts Centre.

“Fantastic use of light and movement – great colours and a real sense of the power of nature.”

“There is a serenity in Lucy’s images which soothes the soul. Even the tumultuous waves of her seascapes crashing against ragged rocks have a fluid calm within the brushwork, her palette the cool blues and greens which we associate with the peace we find when emersed in nature.”
