I am a child of God, privileged to live my life as a woman, wife, mother, and an artist. I co-create with God art illuminating love and grace by reflecting the spirit within. I share a world of trust and beauty with my subjects softened with the vulnerability of mankind. There I find my passion.

Becky Lucas, Artist

Colorado artist, Becky Lucas has rediscovered her passion with color. The Santa Fe native reflects the rich colors of her youth on every canvas. “People often say that New Mexico is stark and void of color. But to an artist it is alive with hues of caramel, vivid greens, garnet and amber and the mystical brilliance of orange. The treasure of color is its simplicity,” says Becky. “It arouses something deep inside us.”

As a military wife who nurtured twenty-three homes in twenty years, Becky learned quickly to root their home in the familiar. “And that is what I attempt to translate with my paintings -- To give the viewer a sense of awe in the familiar.”

The millennium for many was a cause for change. In her desire to slow down and appreciate life, Becky dedicated more time to stretching her artistic talents from drawing, sewing and quilting to painting. After trying many mediums, she discovered the flow of watercolor and pastels. “It was a union of coming home — A soulful discovery. After traveling so much I understood well that all experiences flow into one another. Passion for the present."
