Artist biography Lucy Kinsella is a British Postwar & Contemporary sculptor, she was born in the mid 20th century in the year 1960. Kinsella's works have been exhibited & sold in auction houses like Sotherby’s around the world with sold prices fetching as high as $78,145 US Dollars.
Lucy has a deep passion & love for watching also drawing animals since she was a very young child, she spent a great deal of her young childhood time outside & she is an animalier.” Her birthplace was in the southern shire of Hampshire. She presently resides in the east midlands in the middle shire of Leicestershire. When she grew up and left school she wanted to go into farming, however this idea did not last long as after only a couple of years, she moved into the big city pursuing a career in business in London, after some time she felt that path was not suitable for her. She took a leap of faith and applied & was accepted for an Art course. She soon realised that this was the right decision for her. Then she completed an art degree which focused on sculpture. When she graduated, she then got her very own studio, specialising in animals. As she improved her technique she developed her own style, with exceptional patination.
Kinsella is able to clearly show the animals character through poses & gestures. Her great skill of harnessing motion. She starts her works with great research and starts off producing scale sized drawings then models with wax over copper wire, which really help her to choose how to create the sculpture. When she has chosen the final design creation, she will then produce the piece using plaster or clay over a skeleton of welded metal. A mould is then made from the final work, then cast in mainly bronze before the begins her very careful highly skilled application of layers of coloured patinas that she uses. She believes in trying to capture the very essence of the animal that she studies.
So collectible & highly sought after by collectors. Having such a beautiful finish with charming patination.
