Meet the Artist

_IMG6237-Edit.jpg

Eszter Luca is an artist residing in the beautiful Garden City (Christchurch, New Zealand). Originally from Europe she moved to Nelson, New Zealand in 2004 and has ever since been mesmerised by the natural world and the scenic beauty that can be found all around us. You can usually find her creating art most days, pouring her heart into her canvas to create these artworks for you to treasure for years to come.
 

“I draw on inspiration from colours and details that our world offers. If you look up, you'll notice the beauty all around us; such as the light sparkling between the leaves of a tree as they rustle in the breeze. My works feature New Zealand birds, with a fine art inspired background that has been layered with many thin layers of acrylic paint. The leaves in my work are either painted with gold for a soft shine or I add gold leaf for a more intense glow depending on what look I’m going for”
 

Explore the allure and beauty of nature, evoking a sense of tranquility, wonder and freedom. These gold details catch the light in different atmospheres, meaning that they are ever changing and look different throughout various parts of the day and depending on which angle you look at them. Exploring the interplay between golden hues, nature and the ethereal these pieces will no doubt shine in your space becoming a centre piece that transports you to a moment of contemplation, wonder and elegance​
