HOW DOES THE LUCY WORK?
The LUCY uses a series of optical mirrors to place a live image of your subject onto your drawing paper!
The LUCY is an improved version of the classic camera lucida. Watch the 85 second video below to learn more about how it works.
REVIEWS
Michael Borys
Boing Boing
"The LUCY will make you feel like you have special abilities by letting you look at two things at once – and have them converge in the same spot for you to draw on top of."
Eugene Conway
Dublin Ireland
"The LUCY opens up a whole new world of possibilities. This instrument, requires a degree of patience and skill which rewards with truly amazing results which are genuinely astounding."
Rhonda Sciacca
Australia
“I love the LUCY… I use it to quickly get the correct perspective and have used it in life drawing to easily and quickly get the proportions correct. I also use it just to revive my interest in art when I find it flagging a little. It is exciting with endless possibilities.”
Enlarge Photos with Your LUCY!
The Photo Enlarger is an optional accessory for the LUCY that allows you to enlarge photos, pictures or small objects using your LUCY up to 4x enlargement for the LUCY pro and 3x enlargement for LUCY flex.
FAQ
Q. Can I use the LUCY if I wear glasses?
A. Yes, you can use the LUCY if you wear glasses. But it may not work well if you wear bifocals, trifocals, or progressive lenses. Basically, a LUCY enables you to see two things at the same time laid over each other. So you see your paper and the subject at the same time. If you have difficulty seeing near and far objects without trifocals, then when the two images are transposed over each other you will only be able to see either one or the other clearly.
Q. Does it make a difference if I am right or left-handed?
A. The LUCY easily switches back and forth from right to left handed as needed.
Q. What kind of lighting do I need when using the LUCY?
A. You just need a normal well-lit space like you would for any other art project. The LUCY works inside or outside—wherever there is light.
Lucy Pro vs. LUCY flex
You may be thinking, besides the cost, what is the difference between the two LUCY models? Well, the biggest difference is the size of the image. The LUCY pro’s image goes up to 20×37 inches, while the LUCY flex has an image of 19×27 inches, which is still large, just not as large as the LUCY pro.
Along with the size of the image, the LUCY pro also has a larger magnification when enlarging photos with the Photo Enlarger: up to 4x enlargement for the LUCY pro, and 3x enlargement for LUCY flex.
The LUCY pro is also just nicer in all aspects as you might expect from the cost difference and the way they look. It is supported by a solid mechanical arm that is steadied by a second diagonal cross support arm, which gives you the most stable image possible.
Most people get the LUCY flex because it is a great deal for what you get and the added flexibility of being able to use it while standing, sitting or at an easel. But if you want the absolute best, or you need the larger image, then get the LUCY pro.
