Welcome and thank you for visiting. This site displays artworks available for sale that have been designed by myself, Lucy Lawrence.

I am a relief and intaglio printmaker and a painter based in Bristol. I mostly use oil-based inks, acrylics, watercolour paints and I work both from home and Spike Print Studio.

In my 20s I studied for almost a decade as an archaeologist, I specialised in prehistoric economices of the first farming communities in Europe, predominantly focussing on how domesticated animals and plants were incorporated into the household economy. This has shaped the way I view human interactions with the natural and domesticated world and it is reflected in my artwork. 

I’m drawn to the evolving relationship between humans and the plants they cultivate — how greenery becomes woven into the fabric of domestic life, not just as food or medicine, but as decoration, spiritual symbol, and sentimental token. Over the past few years, motherhood has reshaped how I understand the household. It’s become a lens through which I reflect on the meaning of home — a concept that feels fluid, shifting with the objects, rituals, and relationships we choose to include or exclude. I find myself returning to questions of care, memory, and belonging, and how these are expressed through the physical and social boundaries we build around our lives. I make sketches while at home or outside, these are often instinctively captured but also based when I get the opportunity to sit and observe too! I then occasionly turn these into stand alone prints or paintings, or they are included in layers for larger, more thought through pieces such as House and Garden I and II. 

If you would like to ask about more about a piece, please fill out the form on the contact page or message me through social media. If you would like to see more of my artwork that isn't yet for sale, please follow my social media pages where I post sketches, watercolours and images of works in progress.
