Lucia Hardy
Lucia Hardy is an artist from Harold Wood, Essex, painting expressive and dynamic birds, wildlife and wild British landscapes.
Born and raised in London, Lucia is inspired by nature’s strength, resilience and the connecting struggle we all share to balance the darkness and joy of life.
Painting in textural acrylics, in a contemporary, semi-abstract style, her process involves following trails of inspiration to creatively explore ideas. She spends time sketching and painting en plein air, thinking, writing and using music to inhabit key themes. When painting, she moves between instinctive, physical mark making and creating depth with layers of colour, texture and form.
Lucia has works with Gallery No.3, Ingatestone; The George Farnham Gallery, Saxmundhum; Bob Cat Gallery and has exhibited at the Oxo Tower Bargehouse and Truman Brewery, London with Roy’s Art Fair. She is an active artist member of the Brentwood Art trail.
Lucia has undertaken a range of projects and exhibitions including live painting demo’s with the Essex Wildlife Trust, Thames Chase Nature Reserve and the London Wetland Centre.
