http://www.robertmiles.co.uk/work/lowry/lowry.htm
Laurence Stephen Lowry was an artist who was famous for his paintings. He often painted industrial scenes usually in the north of England. He was born in Stretford in Manchester on the first of November 1887. For most of his life he worked in a Pall Mall Property Company in Manchester. Some of his training as an artist took place in evening classes at a College Of Art, also in Manchester, under the supervision of a French painter called Adolphe Valette. In the 1910s he began to get more and more interested in industrial scenes. Before World War Two he wasn’t very famous, until after the war when he was even a subject on a television program. Lowry became more famous for painting scenes such as Dwellings, Ordsall Lane and Salford. This painting was brought in 1939 by the Tate Gallery in London. He was also famous for painting street scenes and buildings. One of his paintings of a pond inspired people with his stick men figures around industries and smoking chimneys. Lowry sometimes painted seascapes. Lowry's style fascinated many other artists. His work inspired people to write a song after his death on the 23rd of February 1976 at Glossop in Derbyshire. His song was called Matchstick Men.

Laurence Stephen Lowry was born and lived in Salford, Manchester, a large city with lots of factories and terraced houses. Rather than paint landscapes and country scenes Lowry saw a beauty in the street scenes around his home in a poor area of the city. Because of the smoke from the factories, all the buildings were grey and dirty and Lowry tried to capture this in his paintings. He often painted crowd scenes and his people were often simplified to stick figures or matchstick men.

    Laurence Stephen Lowry did not just paint northern scenes. He visited the south coast looking for ships and ferry s to paint. On one of these trips he visited Winchester where he observed a bearded lady pushing a perambulator. Lowry started to sketch the woman who strongly objected and used all sorts of foul language to let Lowry know it! Lowry recalled this moment and he was even more amazed that this happened in Winchester of all places!
    LS Lowry was born 1St November 1887, He had his first job in 1904 where he "drifted into" office work as a clerk with a Manchester accountant. There is a drawing surviving "yachts" 1902,
    Employment allowed him to take private tuition in art, this accounts for the few still life drawings of around 1906-1914.
    He also went to the Manchester College of Art at All Saints for evenings from 1905, he is quoted "I saw people there, I liked the life.It was good to meet people there" the books write of Lowry as "having a temperament" and loving a lonely life, unsociable, he did not fit in, he moved in art circles, he was not good at still life, teachers found him impossible.The influence of his teachers come through in paintings "Landscape" 1912 and "Country lane" 1914.
    Financial hardship hit the Lowrys and they had to move down from respectable Victoria Park to Pendlebury. This was very upsetting for his parents who had worked hard, this was seen by them as failure

    Laurence Stephen Lowry awarded HSAA for distinction in art L. S. Lowry, R. A., British Industrial Landscape painter. 1887 - 1976 H. S. A. A.
    Born on the 1st November 1887 in Stretford, Manchester. Lancashire. U. K.
    It would be in early 1909 when his family moved to Station Road, Pendlebury, where he lived for around
    40 years. He studied at Salford School of Art part time in the period 1915-28 and during the evenings he worked as a rent collector in the Manchester and Salford area. He would draw in a small pocket size sketchbook in pencil scenes of the people, the local life and grimy buildings during his working visits into the streets and houses. After working all day at the Salford School of Art and in the evenings collecting the rents, he would go into his studio and paint during the night and into the early hours, where he created in oil paints the industrial paintings depicting the people, streets and mills of Lancashire. During the 1930's he exhibited his work in Manchester and Salford, but it was in 1939 when he was offered an exhibition at the Lefevre Gallery , London, when his career started to take shape. Following the London exhibition , interest in his paintings really began and L. S. Lowry had finally arrived on to the art scene. Being a very cautious man regarding money it wasn't until 1952 when sales of his paintings were in steady demand that he decided one evening to give up his part time insurance and rent collector job. Now well known for the stylized stick like figures of the workers oin the industrial cotton mills of Lancashire, he received the honour of becoming a Royal Academician (R. A.) for his life's work in art.

    http://www.lslowry.com/about.html
    Laurence Stephen Lowry (1887-1976) Laurence Stephen Lowry is one of the most popular British artists of the twentieth century, best known for his atmospheric urban and industrial landscapes. Born in Stretford, Manchester, Lowry enjoyed drawing as a boy, but it was not until he started work as a clerk that he was able to afford drawing lessons. His early drawings from life reveal an accomplished and academic draughtsman..a far cry from the more stylized figures of his later years. Working as a rent collector, Lowry got to know the poorer districts of Manchester. The mill, the terraced streets and their inhabitants provide the subject matter of some of his most famous works. "I'll always be grateful to rent collection, I've put many of the tenants in my pictures". It was not until the 1930's that Lowry achieved any kind of commercial success. Lowry's father died in 1932. His mother, to whom he was extremely close, died in 1939. He later said "I have never felt much interest in life since then".
    (Above) is a picture of Lowry doing what he liked to do best, painting another scene from his life.

    Biography
    Laurence Stephen Lowry
    Lowry's extraordinary standing and popularity owe everything to his reputation as an urban realist, a painter of mill towns populated with a myriad of 'stick' figures. In truth, for more than a third of his career he had left the urban scenes behind and turned to more solitary subjects, reflecting perhaps his own loneliness. Lowry was born in Manchester to relatively prosperous parents, who in 1909, moved to the industrial district of Pendlebury. He studied at Manchester and Salford Schools of Art until 1928, while working as a clearly very sympathetic rent collector, one of Lowry's teachers being Adolphe Valette. From 1932 Lowry exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy and in 1934 was elected R.B.A. The year 1939 saw his first one-man exhibition and sadly the death of his mother with whom he had lived, his father having died in 1932. Lowry stayed in Pendlebury until 1948, then moved to Mottram in Longdendale Cheshire, which from all accounts he disliked, and where he died in 1976. Lowry was belatedly elected A.R.A. in 1955 and R.A. in 1962. Lowry was perhaps surprisingly, a great admirer of the Pre-Raphaelites, he owned works by Rossetti and Ford Madox Brown, and works by Lucien Freud. His early work owes something to an anglicized form of impressionism, while his industrial scenes, far from being naive or primitive, show careful observation and character, the work of an artist who studied at art school a considerable time. Without question Lowry is a unique artist, his works a product of his environment and character, one of the great names in twentieth century British art.
