About the artist

Hi, I'm Lida

Painter of peculiar flowers, singer of songs.

Lida paints under the name Belladonna 505 in Melbourne — loose watercolour, crayon and pen, mostly in sketchbooks, where big blooms share the page with toads, birds and storybook clouds.

She is also the singer-songwriter of the Melbourne band Her Shadow Crown.
