Nava Lundy

Lipstick Promises, Original Painting

2025

Artist Comments
A woman applies red lipstick, its bold colors echoing her energy. The repetition of hands, mirrors, and lipstick creates a layered composition that plays with perspective and identity. Rich colors and soft shadows draw the attention in, while textured brushstrokes give the moment emotional weight. The scene captures the intimacy of a quiet, feminine ritual, caught between reflection and reality. It is both personal and performative, inviting a deeper look beneath the surface.

About the Artist
Artist Nava Lundy crafts impressionist paintings that radiate delicate feminine charm, characterized by romantic and textured elements. Focused on achieving depth and dimension, Nava applies impasto layers with a palette knife. With a touch of gold present in nearly all her pieces, her paintings shimmer with a luminous and dreamlike quality. "My goal is to have the viewer see the depth of color I see and to rethink the mundane by elevating it through the exploration of subtlety and turning up its volume at just the right points," says Nava. Her creative journey took a transformative turn at 16 when a teacher's encouragement led her to discover her artistic voice. She then pursued a BFA degree in painting. Nava works in her cluttered home studio, accompanied by her two dogs and occasionally music or podcasts. Beyond art, she spends quality time with her family and rescue hounds and enjoys her alone time in the morning with a strong cup of coffee and a workout.
