About the artwork
"Lucy in the Sky" is a spray-paint and stencil work on paper, referencing the Beatles song. It depicts a young girl in mid-flight over a field, her arms outstretched, set against a starlit night sky featuring a large, detailed moon. The layered spray and stencil technique creates soft gradients in the sky and crisp silhouette edges on the figure and the grassline—a hallmark of stencil-based street art. The piece is one of six variations, each slightly different, making it part of a small edition rather than a single unique original. This example is numbered 1/6 on the back and is signed and dated in black marker.
Expert opinion
Numbering a piece as 1/6 within a hand-finished, hand-sprayed series is a recognized practice in street art and stencil work, where a base stencil is reused but each print is individually modified and finished by hand, so no two are identical even though they share a numbered edition structure. This differs from a fine art print edition and should be described as such in any documentation.
