Lucinda creates unique artwork in a diverse range of media, specialising in sculpture and ceramics.

Lucinda's work reflects her deep love of animals, birds and the natural world. Many of her pieces capture a moment of connection - between species, forms, or characters.  They often articulate a feel or mood - whimsical, fun, uplifting or contemplative. Some works express a striving or struggle but always with an element of hope, capturing the poignancy and vulnerability of life, with an underlying optimism. 

 

Lucinda works in a variety of media, including resin, silver, steel and wood. However, she especially loves the immediacy of working with clay - either fired in her studio kiln, or cast into another medium such as bronze, plaster or glass.

​

Lucinda loves to experiment and play, but also works on commission to create bespoke pieces:

• sculptures commissioned for special milestone events such as birthdays and weddings

• garden features

• sculptural portraits of beloved pets

• tiles or splashbacks to enhance interior design

• iconic, figurative bronzes of people and animals for public display.

 

Lucinda loves to sculpt birds, and has been commissioned to sculpt a number of female birds for research conducted at Deakin University*. The birds had to be realistic enough to attract their male counterparts, so researchers could observe their mating behaviours to support the species' conservation and survival.

Lucinda works at Muddy Paws Studio on the iconic Elwood Canal (Elster Creek). She has created a public community gallery next to the studio for the enjoyment of the passers-by strolling along the busy walking path to the sea.
