Lucky is an absolute fixture in the San Francisco art scene. Her self-taught style is commonly text-based, and she uses layers of resin, paint, and acrylic to create texture and depth. Her work is often deep or witty, and she is, without doubt, the best resin artist I have ever seen. She also has art in all three of Michelin 3-Star Chef Dominique Crenn’s restaurants.
This particular piece differs from the others in this fundraiser insofar as it is much more dimensional (and therefore hard to capture in photos). The text, heart, and bear are all separate objects, spaced with and surrounded by resin.
