About Me

I live and work in Newquay, Cornwall. Determined to spend as much time as possible in or near the ocean, I left London in 2014 and I haven’t looked back. Cornwall’s rich artistic heritage and creative business opportunities makes this one of the most exciting places to be for artists, galleries and makers of all disciplines.

 

What I do

Following an in-depth discussion about you and your ideas, I will suggest a bespoke plan of action to suit your requirements. I work on one-off projects, or we can arrange a more regular schedule, depending on your preference. My aim is to give you more time to focus on your practice and achieve your creative goals. See below for an overview of recent projects :

About Me

I have worked in a variety of roles within the arts sector, and I can offer a diverse skill set. Exhibition planning, events, admin, marketing, communications and fundraising are my main areas of expertise - but when it comes to art-related conundrums - really anything goes.

“Lucy has been absolutely invaluable to me during the last few years, assisting with every aspect of my painting career. I don’t think things would have taken off as they have done for me without her patience, inspiration and support.”

Nurturing your creativity

I approach each client with care and consideration. Everyone works differently and I am careful to respect the sensitivities and temperament of the artist. I aim to take away the distraction of the to-do list - giving you time and space to reflect on your work and get on with the important things.
