Becky Smith has rapidly emerged as a key figure in contemporary art, captivating collectors and enthusiasts worldwide with her signature skull motifs, adorned with intricate flowers, climbing vines, butterflies and bees. She combines vibrant natural elements that appear to grow from within the skulls & skeletons, creating visually striking works that evoke life, beauty, and transformation.
Her distinctive techniques, including layering acrylic paints and aerosol sprays with metallic leaf on canvas, aluminium, and copper, bring depth and texture to her pieces. Smith’s use of UV-reactive pigments transforms her artworks from day to night, offering a glowing second life after dark. Exclusively available at Wyecliffe Galleries, her sell-out editions and originals are highly sought after.
With over 3.5 million views on TikTok (@bbeckysmithh), Smith’s influence has extended far beyond the art world, attracting celebrity collectors like Stormzy and Sophie Turner. She’s partnered with major brands like Disney and Sony on private commissions and created public art installations such as 'Fleur' and 'Paws on the Wharf,' featured in The Guardian and BBC.
While Becky's current focus is on nature-inspired central motifs, elements of her earlier cosmic-inspired works still linger, blending seamlessly into her compositions and inviting viewers to explore otherworldly dimensions alongside earthly beauty.
