Lucy Best-Shaw

Lucy was born and brought up in Kent, on a farm at the foot of the North Downs and she was encouraged by her artist mother, throughout her childhood, to paint, draw and sculpt. Primarily a landscape artist, she moved north to Todmorden, then Leeds in 1997, the contrasts of the hills, mills and moorlands of the Pennines, to the parkland walks, Victorian reservoirs and canals of the Leeds area has been an ever-changing inspiration. These landscapes combined with the early influence of the rolling hills and flat marshes of her childhood continue to fire her imagination.
Her work has been exhibited nationally and online and she has won prizes for her landscapes.
