Lucy Pittaway

Unison Colour Associate Artist

About:

Yorkshire artist Lucy Pittaway is the Fine Art Trade Guild’s ‘Up and Coming Artist of the Year 2016’ and the winner of ‘Best New Art Business 2017’.

Lucy Pittaway has two dedicated Art Galleries, the original located in Brompton-on-Swale, with the second in Richmond, North Yorkshire.

A former graphic design teacher, Lucy took the decision to become a full time professional artist just a few years ago. In the space of three years Lucy has seen her popularity grow at an incredible speed, with her artwork now being shipped worldwide and a social media following of over 20,000.

Lucy uses Unison Colour’s soft pastels to create bright and uplifting artwork, with each piece having an underlying story and inspiration related to Lucy’s own life, family and surroundings up in the Yorkshire Dales.

Lucy has become best known for her ‘Sheep’ collection, which Lucy uses to portray her life in the Dales, and more recently her ‘Cycling and Le Tour’ collections have resonated with cycling enthusiasts and people of the North following Lucy’s work as the Official Artist of the Tour de Yorkshire for 2016 and 2017.

Lucy’s wider collections of ‘The Houses’, ‘Dreaming of Yorkshire’ and ‘The Cows’ are all available to view at www.lucypittaway.co.uk

Colour Chart Guidance

We believe the colours in our web based colour chart are a faithful representation of our pastel range. But with any colours portrayed on the internet, there’s a whole heap of variables which mean that what you see, may not be what we see. That said, there’s some things that can be done to mitigate some of the variance.

Mobile phone and tablet screens tend to be pretty good for colour, so they’re always worth using, when viewing our colour chart.

We hate to say it, but cheaper computer displays, including laptops, can be rather hit and miss, in both colour and contrast, so they might not reveal the depth of the colour, as well as the true tone.

If you’re really keen on getting your computer up to speed on colour representation, you can use a calibration device to reach your display's fullest potential.

With all that said, if you think we’re way off the mark with any of the colours then, by all means let us know, and we’ll give it another shot.
