Lindsey Carr is an artist/illustrator based in Glasgow whose creations I find delightful. Having admired her work for many years, I love the direction that she’s taken in recent years – richer, more substantial, with bold yet translucent color. The antique, luscious, yet delicate qualities of her paintings filled with flowers, animals, and mythical beings lure the eye and enchant and refresh. Taking inspiration from Rococo art, still lifes of the Old Masters, and the naturalist illustrations of Ernst Haeckel, the gloss and glimmer of Carr’s painted world is refined as well as vibrant. Her charming, surreal, historically influenced style is eminently suited for depictions of chimerical figures such as Alkonost.
