Lu Cornish

Lu describes herself as a colour-loving misfit living by the sea, creating art from her anxious mind and free soul to bring colour to a world that sometimes seems grey.

Lu pours her heart and soul into her work, and she is very much a visual storyteller, with every single piece telling a story, creating a feeling or bringing back a memory. 

Lu tells us, "Along came the pandemic and with it a nervous breakdown for me. As part of my recovery, I jumped into the ocean and started swimming. I ordered an art subscription box and drew a little field mouse. I loved it, just that little creative outlet was enough to reignite my passion for illustration that had all but burnt out. An unexpected side effect of the medication I was taking was that I lost some inhibitions, so I started an Instagram account and posted my work and the rest, as they say, is history."
