ARTIST’S STATEMENT
“You touch people’s lives when you open their minds to possibilities."
I believe that my art is a spiritual expression of the eternal struggle and ultimate triumph of the human soul. My art comes from a place deep within myself; from the power of love that resonates inside us, reaches for the divine and touches something ultimately spiritual: the promise, truthful and sublime, that all will be well.
When you look at my art, reflect and be reflected. Behold your image as I see
you, perfect and beautiful.”
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Lena Luckey is a native of Prague, Czech Republic and has traveled the world to cultivate and develop her art. Based first in Munich, Germany, she journeyed throughout Europe, spending time in the pastoral countryside and most of the major metropolitan cities in Western Europe. While on the Mediterranean peninsula of St. Tropez, the French art and coastal inhabitants there inspired her to paint.
Luckey’s desire to experience and immerse herself completely in other cultures led her south to Casablanca, Morocco. Morocco’s rich historical culture incorporates the best of Arab, Spanish, Portuguese and French art. While in Casablanca, she absorbed the spirit, flavors and textures of these influences and naturally infused them into her work.
Intrigued by how her soul was identifying with a wide variety of nationalities and cultures, Luckey next set her sights on the island of Bali, Indonesia. The time spent in Bali's spiritually rich environment culminated in a fusion of all her experiences. Her artwork reveals textures and colors that bridge several continents and many diverse cultures.
Luckey uses the artistic medium of acrylic on canvas to depict her personal experiences with people, places, and emotions. To give texture to some of her work she uses beach sand, saw dust, grass or soil on the canvas to produce a truly unique and emotive creation from her soul.
Look through the various Galleries on Luckey’s web site and you will get a sense of her diverse and ever evolving art. Luckey has gained national and international acclaim for her outstanding works of art.
