Lucinda has been welcomed into the Lloyd's Art Group which, established in 1963, is a group of 40 visual artists - painters, printmakers, sculptors, photographers, mixed media and digital artists - who all have a connection to Lloyd's and the London Insurance market.
As well as organising exhibitions together the group also meet to share their love of art. Lucinda joined them on Tuesday 20th July for a social outing to the Tate Modern where they viewed the photography exhibition 'Exposed: Voyeurism, Surveillance and the Camera', followed by drinks at The Sterling bar beneath the Guerkin.
The group's main activity is an annual autumn exhibition held in the iconic Lloyd's building in the heart of the City of London, where 15% of art sales are donated to the group's charity, the Coombe Trust.
Lucinda's art work is now featured on the Lloyd's Art Group website.
