Lucia Smith

Pastels

Lucia paints "the places she knows best", the stunning Yorkshire Dales, in beautiful soft pastels, seeking the essence of each location, choosing light and shadow to pin down the feeling of being there. Hard and soft edges of colour suggest that the wind is blowing, the clouds and shadows are about to move, and the view holds our gaze as we wait for the scene to entertain us.
