Meet Pippa Hale-Lynch

Pippa Hale-Lynch (b.1992)

Pippa is a contemporary figurative artist and Architect based in the UK. Her work focuses on the themes of solitude and grief, which stem from the loss of her mother, and draws inspiration from the ephemerality of human experience.

She uses techniques learnt from training in 19th-century representational drawing and over 12 years of practice. She creates paintings using oils with multiple transparent glazes, scumbling layers of paint and detailed brushwork.

Her work has been exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery, London as part of the Herbert Smith Freehold Kramer Portrait Award (2025). She has exhibited in numerous group shows including the Royal Society of Oil Painters at Mall Galleries, London (2023), and the Bath Society of Artists Annual Exhibition at the Victoria Art Gallery, Bath (2023). She received the InsideArt Award and was a Finalist in the 17th International Art Renewal Center Salon (2024), and was awarded 2nd place in the International Boynes Emerging Artist Award (2021).

In addition to exhibiting, Pippa shares her expertise through hosting workshops and one-on-one tuition. Her work is in private collections across the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Australia and the United States.
