Sad News
Gary Lucy has passed away·
Franklin County Missouri Historical Society
Lynn Wagner
Rest in Peace Gary Lucy
Gary R. Lucy of Washington, Missouri, was a well-known American artist celebrated for his detailed paintings of the Missouri River, historic inland waterways, and wildlife. He owned and operated the Gary R. Lucy Gallery at 231 W. Main Street in Washington.
Originally from Missouri’s Bootheel region and graduating from Southeast Missouri State University in 1971, Lucy worked as an elementary school art teacher in Washington for a year before becoming a full-time artist. Over the years, he earned recognition for wildlife art, won duck-stamp competitions, completed murals for libraries and businesses, and even created a floating “River Rover” studio from which he painted on the river.
His gallery was a popular local attraction and contributed to cultural tourism in Washington, while his artwork preserved and celebrated the region’s river history.
He will be remembered for the impact he made on the art scene and his depictions of life in the Midwest.
The photo below is from his Facebook account in 2020 when he was working for a piece for the Governor’s Mansion entitled Jefferson City: Capital City River and Rail Transportation, 1856.
Thank you for blessing Franklin County with your talent and passion.
RiverBill says... Gary was a well-known boater on Pool 26 of the Mississippi River. Rest in Pace Gary
