About Lydia Milford

Lydia Milford trained in illustration at St. Martins in London and subsequently worked as a freelance illustrator and designer. In 2004 Lydia returned to study and obtained a master’s degree in Fine Art from Plymouth University. She works in watercolour and mixed media and is inspired by the coast and countryside of Devon and Cornwall. Her work is in collections in South Africa, USA, Holland and France. Lydia regularly exhibits in Devon. Currently, her practice has three main areas of focus; Dartmoor, the Devon coastline and rural landscape. She enjoys the variety of the changing seasons and the drama of weather that it brings. Lydia works in mixed media on paper with added marks from crayon and pen or whatever comes to hand.
