LILY MACRAE

Lily Macrae is a contemporary painter based in Glasgow, known for her ability to merge the past with the present through her large-scale works. A former student of the Edinburgh College of Art, Lily’s practice is deeply influenced by the grandeur of Renaissance and Baroque art. Yet, she brings a modern sensibility to her work, utilizing bold colors and abstract gestures that give her pieces a striking sense of movement and immediacy.

Lily’s paintings are notable for their narrative depth and expressive style. Each piece feels as though it is capturing a moment in time, yet the dynamic brushstrokes and vibrant palettes transport viewers beyond the confines of historical art. Her ability to blend classical drama with contemporary abstraction results in a body of work that feels timeless yet entirely of the moment. Lily’s works have been exhibited in various galleries, and her distinct approach continues to captivate audiences.
My paintings are an attempt to merge the drama of classical art with the freedom of contemporary abstraction, capturing moments of intensity and emotion that feel timeless.
