Igniting Penguins - A Manifesto for Painting keytags Contrasting the limits of comedyBritish born artist Rachel Lumsden creates primarily large format figurative paintings characterized by intensely atmospheric, pictorial spaces. Her imagery coalesces on the canvas through a virtuoso handling of paint, evoking visual narratives that come unexpectedly close and yet cannot be entirely grasped. In her book Igniting Penguins, Lumsden invites her readers on an entertaining excursion into the art world and to the core of painting itself.
