Christmas Shop at Sprout Gallery
74 Moyser Road, London SW16 6SQ
Dates in December to be confirmed
Open 11-5 Tues to Saturday

I will have various gift items for sale, all featuring my paintings: 2025 calendars, greeting cards, mugs, coasters and jigsaws.


I currently live in south London. I work in my garden studio in the Furzedown area of Tooting where I run art classes for adults and children in the Furzedown Project on Moyser Road SW16.

I have been exhibiting for many years and my work is in private collections nationally and internationally. Some of my largest work hangs nearby at St George's Hospital, Tooting (originally commissioned by the Bolingbroke Hospital, Wandsworth).

I studied painting at Farnham College of Art and ten years later took an MA at Chelsea College of Art, London. Primarily I am a painter working in oil on canvas and gouache on paper but I also paint wooden furniture, boxes and screens. I sometimes make linocut or woodcut prints as well as mosaics.

Most of my paintings are individual figures or groups of figures but I also paint more traditional landscapes. Colour is a perennial theme in my work. I enjoy juxtaposing certain colours and using pattern, colour and hue to express emotion. Having grown up in the Wiltshire countryside, natural forms are also a recurring motif. How people relate to each other and express themselves (or fail to) fascinates me and I often add tension using looks and glances between members of a group. Fashion is also added to these dynamics. Inspired by historic dresses and colourful fabrics I often paint figures in exuberant outfits. I am as happy painting portraits from life as I am creating figures from my imagination. 

Landscapes show another side of my work where light and weather provide the shades of feeling within a painting.

In recent years I have developed a range of affordable merchandise: calendars, cards, mugs, coasters and jigsaws featuring my paintings. A large selection is always available at my shows. Otherwise visit Sprout Gallery, 74 Moyser Road, London SW16 6SQ (11am-5pm Tue to Sat) or my Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/LucindArtshop
