Erisalexandra was created a little over a year ago (back in 2012) my real name is Lucy McCarthy currently living and working in the UK. I chose to use my two middle names to create a platform in which to share my art to others and make connections with other artists. I currently post a lot of my art on tumblr which was the main starting point for Erisalexandra.
I also post on facebook and twitter too.
I began developing my art in high school- I was bit of a doodler (check my school books) and later on took art as a GCSE where I guess I started experimenting with my techniques. I've always been inspired by Indian art and culture and after two trips there (so far!) I can say I have definite influences of Indian art practices such as Rangoli, Mendhi and Buddhist Mandalas.
Currently i create pieces on both paper and more recently porcelain, I'm always looking for somewhere new to put my designs- i've also done a few successful tattoo ideas!
For me, art is a way to escape and do my own thing- to follow my own path and to explore and I hope to share that with you!
Be sure to check back here as I will be posting again soon!
