Rees, Lloyd (1895-1988), an Australian artist, became known for his landscapes. His skill as a draftsman can be seen in his atmospheric pen-and-pencil drawings of Brisbane and Sydney. He also began painting about 1920, creating scenes that show the influence of European landscape artists, especially the French painter Camille Corot.
Lloyd Frederic Rees was born on March 17, 1895, in Brisbane, Queensland. He studied at the Brisbane Technical College and at the Chelsea Polytechnic, in London. Rees died on Dec. 2, 1988.
