Lucy recently partnered with one of Yorkshire’s most luxury boutique hotels for a special project to celebrate the beauty of the Dales. The Wensleydale Heifer in West Witton, near Leyburn recently commissioned Lucy to create a commemorative piece at the request of father and son team Lewis and David Moss to mark their 17th anniversary at the Wensleydale Heifer.

The piece, titled ‘The Heart of Wensleydale’, features the rolling hills of the area around West Witton with the Wensleydale Heifer nestling at its centre. The original artwork sits in pride of place within the Heifer’s restaurant, joining an existing, carefully curated collection of Lucy’s work which already features in the property.

Heifer Owner David Moss said: “We’re huge fans of Lucy’s work and have been working closely with her for several years. We wanted to work with the area’s leading artist to create a piece which truly celebrated the beauty of Wensleydale and the Yorkshire Dales, to show how proud we are to be at that heart of that community.

Lucy said: “I was thrilled to undertake this commission as I, and my family, love the Wensleydale Heifer and have been coming here for many, many years. We’ve celebrated significant family events here, and I’ve always understood the important role it plays within the Wensleydale community. It’s a really special place. The painting is a celebration of both the Heifer and also the love people have for the Dales and their time spent in this wonderful part of the world.”
