If you’ve ever wondered how one of the UK’s most recognisable artists might mark a major milestone, the answer is simple, by saying thank you to her loyal supporters in the best way possible.
To mark 10 years since opening her first gallery, Lucy Pittaway is running her biggest ever giveaway: a £10,000 art competition. Ten winners will each receive a £1,000 voucher to spend on Lucy Pittaway artwork, including framed prints, canvases, or one of her much-loved sheep pieces.
From Home Studio to National Recognition
Lucy began painting more than 13 years ago, working from a small studio in her garden, a converted metal shed. She started by creating original commissions and limited-edition prints. As more people discovered her pastel artworks, demand quickly grew.
In 2015, Lucy opened her first gallery in Brompton-on-Swale, North Yorkshire, marking the start of the business that it has grown into today.
Seven Galleries Across the North
Today, there are seven galleries across North Yorkshire, the North East, and the Lake District. You can find them in Yarm, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Richmond, Harrogate, York, Keswick, and Bowness-on-Windermere.
Each gallery showcases Lucy’s colouful and unique approach to art. Visitors can explore many prints and canvases. These include Originals, open and limited edition prints, artist proofs and canvases.
There is also a wide range of homeware, stationery and gifts inspired by popular artwork.
Her Outlet Store and Head Office in Brompton-on-Swale is the creative hub of her business. It’s home to Lucy’s art studio, the company’s framing team, and its warehouse.
From Yorkshire Artist to UK Favourite
Over ten years, Lucy has become one of the UK’s most successful commercial artists. She has won multiple awards, including the UK’s Most Popular Commercial Artist multiple times. Also serving as the official artist for the Tour de Yorkshire
Her tribute to the Sycamore Gap tree gained international recognition and further strengthened her reputation as an artist.

Speaking about the anniversary, Lucy said:
“Over the last ten years, I’ve been delighted lots of people have enjoyed my art. I have many loyal supporters and I wanted to do something to thank them. Running this competition felt like a great way to get people involved.”
