Lucas Pennacchi

Lucas Pennacchi (born 1960 in São Paulo) is a Brazilian artist that works with painting, drawing and engraving.

History

He started to draw and paint at school and with his father, Fulvio Pennacchi, a famous Brazilian artist. He went to the school of architecture, where he studied art and drawing, but left in the 3rd year.

His own father defined Lucas work when he started his professional career:

Luca dedicates interest and love to the art of painting, and he has quickly shown, with unusual ease, how to win pictorial, compositional problems, and issues related to drawing. All as means to attain what is beautiful in the landscape. But he didn't pursued the modern canons of imitation, formulae that are in vogue nowadays. He loves to see the hills, the trees, the houses, and aims at a pleasant beauty, that can show to men what God created for us with so much love.

Lucas themes deal with landscapes and seascapes, and compositions with birds and fish. His work is currently private collectors, and art galleries. He's a frequent collaborator with art publications, and in 2004 he was theme for a feature of Metrópolis, a widely known TV Cultura program.

He learnt mosaic all by himself, and teaches open courses in MUBE, Brazilian Sculpture Museum.
