Specialties

Lucy had worked with some of the best companies in the world. Her hard work and strong work ethic have landed her jobs with Cirque du Soleil, Moonbot Movies, LA House of Props, Shreveport Little Theater, and the River City Reps.

She has been on many mural teams and has many of her murals in Oregon.

She used her passion for travel to write for a monthly travel magazine in Louisiana for over 12 years before moving to Oregon. She has a free online travel magazine which she put on hold when Covid hit. Lucy is planning on restarting it this summer.

In May 2022, she and her husband returned from a 10-state, 39-day, and over 6000-mile journey halfway across the United States. She is beginning to write about this adventure and is gearing up for the next.

Interests

From a young age, Lucy knew three things: she wanted to travel, to be a writer and an artist.

For graduation, she asked for a ticket to Spain that began her world travels. She filled her backpack and went to Europe 15 times.

At age 26, she set off by herself, arriving in South America. After a month in Venezuela, she met Erich. The duo set off to Machu Picchu, made it, and spent another few months traveling through Colombia and Ecuador.

After that adventure, they decided to marry and go to his homeland Switzerland. After a year, they returned to the United States, bought an RV, and continued seeing the world. Eventually, Erich missed his homeland and returned there alone.

Twenty-five years ago, Lucy met Curt and they hit it off. They had a house in Biloxi when Hurricane Katrina. Their home was one inch away from being flooded. The pair decided to move inland to Shreveport, where they were both successful artists creating, teaching, and working for creative companies and the movies.

In 2017 it was time to relocate away from the heat. The couple found a tiny mountain town in Oregon that is home, but they still travel often.

In May 2022, they returned from a 10-state, 39-day, and over 6000-mile trip to pick up a van to expand their journeys.
