2)Lucy McLauchlan
Lucy McLauchlan was born in 1978.She is a contemporary artist from Birmingham,England and is a member "Beat 13!" collective...
Lucy combines art deco,psychedelic and childlike motifs (human faces and birds are two of them).Her pieces are delicate and yet engaging and provocative...
She usually crafts with permanent materials such as Indian ink and marker pens(working mainly in black,brown and white)..."If I make a mistake I can't remove it;often though,the accidental details become my favourite"she says of her ambitious work...
Hidden Tracks, Hand to Eye, Creative Review, Relax, Graphic International, Modart, DPM, Graphic Britain, IdN Magazine and Plus81 are some of the magazines where Lucy's work has been displayed...
In 2001,"Beat 13!" collective had an exhibition at the Horse Hospital Arts venue in central London but her own first show was the "Expressive Deviant Phonology" which ran from December 2007 to January 2008 at LAZ.inc(Steve Lazarides' Art Gallery) in Soho...
She has exhibited all over the world ,from London's Victoria and Albert Museum to the Eclectic Gallery in London and Tokyo...
Lucy has also lately(July 2010) painted three multi-storey birds on Birmingham Central Library...
"Art is everywhere"I bet she thinks and I totally agree with her...
