Classically
trained in Italy, portrait artist
Lucinda Coldrey is now based in London, where she
takes comissions for both animal portraits
and human portraits, from child portraits
to family portraits.
While portrait painting is Lucinda's primary focus,
she also travels all over the world to paint. Recent
trips have taken her to India and Morroco,
where she did both landscape
paintings and did a commissioned charcoal
portrait.
Although Lucinda travels for her commissions, she
also paints or draws portraits from photographs
if it is not possible for the "subject" to sit. She also
does posthumous oil
portraits and charcoal
portraits. Using
traditional methods and materials, Lucinda is able to capture the
character of the sitter as well as capturing the likeness from nature.
There is nothing that truly captures beauty like an original
oil painting.
Pet portraits, dog portraits and
portraits of your loved ones make a timeless addition
to anyone's home, and make a fantastic gift. Portraits of
dogs in charcoal, oil and pencil are amougst the most popular
in London.

is in nature, and it is encountered under the most diverse forms
