Lucia Steeg

I am, therefore, I create.
Born in a town called Benoni in the Gauteng province of South Africa, Lucia emigrated to Canada in 2020 amidst the pandemic, and decided to pursue her passion and launch her art business. Messy Meerkat Studios was officially “born” in 2021.
Her main influences are surrealism and mixed media. She still attends markets and exhibitions in the lower mainland and also promotes her range of resin and Jesmonite craft products.
While wearing many hats in her business, she continues to acquire knowledge in the technical techniques in her chosen mediums.
She works primarily in mixed media (including resin) and currently works from her home in Surrey British Columbia. Mediums include clays, fibre pastes, gel pastes, alcohol inks, acrylic paints, mosaic tiles, wood, shells, crystals, and resin.
