Southland icons by Art by Lucia in Auckland

My art is an expression of my journey through this life. It’s the visual interpretation of the stories from the people I meet, a journey through the knowledge we share and the themes and messages we are trying to convey. I work across a multitude of mediums and a range of environments. I incorporate symbolism and realism, abstract and impressions, along with a unique blend of vibrant colours and patterns. I have honed my skills with over 20 years of experience in painting, along with over a decade of photography practise. Over the past 10 years I have refined my digital art skills, and all the while I am in a constant state of learning and improving, changing and being fluid in my style and way of expressing the stories of those whom I work with to create unique pieces of art. I have gained experience in using spray-paint and airbrush as well as being an expert at using a brush and pots of paint. ? I would describe my art as emitting fun, joy, whimsy, peace, tranquillity and character, and I am comfortable painting on canvas, walls, wood or transportable panels.
