Lucy Herd lives and works in Lismore in Northern NSW. She has always
loved to create and in 2013 completed a Bachelor of Visual Arts and
Education at Southern Cross University. She has since worked as a
teacher in High Schools. Although art has always been an integral part
of her life, in recent months, Lucy has begun to more seriously pursue a
sustained arts practice. Her practice revolves around a deep
appreciation for the exquisite and often overlooked beauty in the
simplest subject matter- a leaf, a flower, the relationship of objects in a
room. From a young age, she has been particularly captivated by
Australian flora and landscapes. In technique and style, a strong
influence on Lucy’s practice is Australian artist, Cressida Campbell who
displays a profound engagement with shape and line as she explores
beauty in the everyday.
