Lydiaemily is the ever-churning hand behind a varied body of work spanning a decade and a half. She believes in the honesty of the human form and its freedom to move through space as rendered by emotion. Her paintings are what happen when things under the skin surface with the help of religion, pop culture and zoo animals.
Lydiaemily’s “Sentimental Monsters” series, begun in 2003 with the aim of recasting a brute or two, helped stick her name in the collecting consciousness. As those paintings often paired popular bogeymen with a female nude, she wasn’t surprised.
Her new series, 'Couples', is headed on her long desired path to realism with oil, and is done entirely on the news print of the New York Sunday Time fixed to canvas.
Lydiaemily has shown in Gallerys in New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Berlin, Germany. She has also been seen in the pages of Helio magazine, on bottles of Asylum Cellars wine and gig posters for musical artists Silversun Pickups, Josh Haden, and in the film Such Hawks Such Hounds as well as many national commercial ads.
