About Art The years pass but her passions remain, this was the motivation that pushed Lidia to resume her artistic career. She returned to drawing almost for fun in 2016, after years of inactivity, and began her artistic journey. The subject is the woman, according to her, a mystical and pagan creature, who represents love, beauty, intellect, passion and spirituality. She transposes part of herself, of her emotions and of her world, through her women. From here she starts a research that allows her to combine the technical knowledge of graphics with illustration, developing works where in addition to femininity and eroticism the basis of graphic study can also be seen; create shapes, rhythms, motifs, harmonies that, like in a dance, make the spectator experience the emotion of "Beauty".
