Lucy Macgillis

Lucy MacGillis was born in Pittsfield, MA in 1977 and has been painting in Italy since her graduation from the University of Pennsylvania in 2000. With grants from Upenn, she studied at Nick Carone’s International School of Art in Montecastello di Vibio and began a series of still lifes and landscapes there. MacGillis works from observation, mixing her own paint from raw earth pigments and linseed oil. She also teaches painting seminars internationally. MacGillis shows her work in Europe and the United States and now lives and paints on a hilltop in Umbria with her son.
