Paintings by Lucy Colby
Lucy paints in acrylic on canvas as well as on wood and other substrates. While she takes her work seriously, she is not afraid to follow creative paths that lead in playful directions, frequently allowing delightfully whimsical creatures to amble, prance, or fly through impressionistic landscapes.
Some of the works shown here are available for purchase through Blue Run Studio's Etsy shop. Additional works are available at the Charlottesville City Market, the Barboursville Gift Gallery, The Arts Center In Orange, and Mad Arts in Madison County. Dimensions listed are approximate.
