Biography
A love of the outdoors inspired Lydia to leave her native Maryland and move to Colorado in 1973. She received BA in fine art and graphiccommunications at Metropolitan StateUniversity in Denver. Lydia was a partner in Epicenter Creative, a local design firm for over 23 years.
The passion of creating a more personal vision drew her back into fine arts; pastels were a natural choice since they combined her love of drawing and color. In the last sixteen years, she has pursued pastel and oil painting. She has pieces in private collections and exhibits in both group and solo shows. She is a member of the Louisville Art Association, the Pastel Society of Colorado, the Pastel Society of America and the Plein Air Artists of Colorado.Her work can be seen at The Old Gallery in Allens Park, Colorado and in her home studio/gallery.
