Arts (Lowry)

Laurence Stephen Lowry was famous for painting scenes of life in the industrial districts of North West England in the mid-20th century. He developed a distinctive style of painting and is best known for his urban landscapes peopled with human figures, often referred to as "matchstick men". He painted mysterious unpopulated landscapes, brooding portraits and the unpublished "marionette" works, which were only found after his death.


His use of stylised figures, which cast no shadows, and lack of weather effects in many of his landscapes led critics to label him a naïve "Sunday painter".

One of his paintings is called "Picadilly Circus":


In this work, we are going to draw a free version of this painting, using pencil, thin black felt-tip and watercolours. We will start from a template:
