LUCCIA LIGNAN (b. 1980 Córdoba, Spain)

 

Painter and Sculptress. Lives and Works in London, United Kingdom

 

She has painted portraits from an early age, and an explosion of color is found in her first attempts with paintbrushes at the age of nine. She paints the portrait of her maternal grandmother "Small Artwork on Canvas", which she still maintains, (Private Collection). She goes to the Painter's Studio to receive Private Painting's Class and finishes her education in The Fine Art College of Santa Isabel de Hungría in Seville.

Her personal imprint and the beauty of her stroke have culminated in designs that merge the political, avant-garde, and collector communities. She likes, she says, that her characters look, observe, rather than being observed. Her portraits are like the Beautiful Florence, elegant and somewhat reserved, they are pure simplicity, when you gaze at them, the most element emotions get back to you.

Luccia Lignan not only offers a creative panoramic aspect in Painting, her artistic activity includes the cultivation of Sculpture as well. Her first Sculpture Works show us an admirable irresistible personality, and her colorist talent in her Polychromatic Works, Woodcarvings or Bronzes.

Her Painting and Sculpture are inseparable. The Feminine Polychromatic Woodcarvings and Bronzes, run in paralell and are tied up to her Pictorial Creations.
