Lydia Solomon
With a father who was
Principal of Rochdale College of Art
and L.S.Lowry as a close family friend
and frequent visitor to our home,
I grew up surrounded by Art.

Since gaining my degree
at Loughborough,
I have exhibited both in the U.K. and abroad.
I have
also featured in numerous publications and reference books and have been seen
on commercial television.
My initial subjects tended to be the sombre
streets and derelict mills of my native Lancashire. However, since taking
up scuba diving another huge source of creativity and inspiration has been the
undersea world of coral reefs.
I
work with pencils, watercolour, pastels, paints, inks and dyes, as well as hand
and machine embroidery techniques.
I
am also very interested in re-interpreting major art movements, such as Pointillism
and Impressionism, in threads and fabric.
I also undertake commissions, so if you have a favourite photograph
that you would like transformed into an original art work,
or you have a particular
idea or project in mind, please contact me at :-
