My mum lived next door to a young girl in Heywood. The girl was called Susan Lowery and she was 9 years old. She wrote to L S Lowry asking if they were related because they had the same surname. He wrote back to her stating that they spelt their names differently so they couldn’t be but he came to visit her and her parents and they struck up a very special friendship. Coming from Lancashire and having a grandmother and great-grandmother who worked in the mills I have a fond connection with the works of Lowry. I also lived in Salford Quays and could see the Lowry Centre from my apartment. My mum has a signed print which we cherish. What a wonderful gifted and kind man he was.

Having first seen Timothy Spall act in Auf Wiedersehen, Pet. Who would have thought that he would become one of our greatest actors. I love to watch him in all he does. 👏🏻👏🏻

Thank you for this video. I really admire Timothy Spall as an actor and I am not surprised that he is a talented artist as well!

Tim was brilliant in the movie and it shows his needle like insight and breaking down to its component parts all aspects of the roles he plays. Why are there not many people applauding this

What can you say ...brilliant listening to the pair discuss very deeply the impetus and mind of this amazing artist ...Timothy captures the man on a very natural level and it's well worth seeing the film

I love Timothy Spall 🥰

Great, These 2 bounce off one another. Very enjoyable, Thank you. Lowry paintings are a little sad , but one gazes into the depth of his paintings.

I was given one of Lowrys paintbrushes in 1973, been an artist myself it's one of my treasured possessions.

So you randomly go onto a video about Lowry and start talking about hacking your girlfriends Instagram account, what has this got to do with the price of fish

That was great ,thanks very much Timothy 🥰 and thank you for the video 🙋‍♀️❤

What a fantastic video.

I love Timothy Spall

I watched the movie last night and thought it was absolutely beautiful. It was full of every emotion you could imagine. What a tour de force both Timothy Spall and Vanessa Redgrave were portraying Mrs Lowry & Son. I’m now looking at Lowry’s paintings in a different way ❤️

That Welsh scene is the mining town of Bargoed . I lived there for three years in the late 60s. That scene was obviously painted from a mountainside frequented by the local scrambling club. And so I recognised the scene when a slideshow of Lowry's work was shown at the local Worker's Education Association in the town library. My mother used to do a bit of painting herself, although she tended to do posters for local events, as she had been a aircraft factory draftsperson in WW2. I was used to being taken to art exhibitions, but from that slideshow I developed an immediate interest in Lowry, that persists to this day. And now I know a lot more about his life, there are huge parallels with my own. Must visit the Lowry next time I am in the UK.

More. I was told that Lowry had a painter friend near Bargoed, and visited the area quite often. Now, one of the paintings my mother bought in South Wales was by a barber living in the nearby village of Fleur de Lys. It was a very colourful landscape of Richmond in Yorkshire, and in someways almost bordered on the label of 'primitive art'. In particular, a red post office van was not exactly in perspective. Now over the years, I have come to imagine that the painter might have been Lowry's local host. We still have that painting in the family back home in the UK. I am likely to be seeing it again, later this year. I can imagine Lowry organising Northern painting excursions for his Welsh friend.

Hi there, 2:22 A Ghost Story has no strobing lights, however lighting changes are used as part of the scene transitions.

Thank you for this - really interesting! I'd love to watch the film, I'd never heard of it before.

5:00 Almost as if Lowry prophetically knew his paintings wold be plundered from Salford Museum & Art Gallery, where he donated them and knew well, to the alienating corporate-fronting soulless armory of The Lowry Building in Salford Quays, which has no more to do with real Salford than Media City next door. 7:30 Another possible landscape for this composite painting, neber mentioned in the literature, is the quarry as it was, off Eccles New Road opposite Ladywell Flats - - a sandstone chasm the shape of Lowry's river with an industrial estate on the far side at the same distance as Lowry's perspective where Kellogs and Lankro Chemicals were. Lowry would have known that location, and the landscape possibilities wouldn;t have eluded him whether he painted it or not.

That's Lowry, laying on the wall having a smoke. Another self portrait.

Hello from brazil , i like lowry paints ! If you like to see industrial paints look for argentinen painter called , lowry contemporaneo) quinquela martin , i think they are in some aspects toghether ,because they paints workers

Jesus, Timothy's lost weight! I barely recognised him until he started speaking and Albert Pierrepoint's voice came rolling out.

Tims turned out to be a good looking older man.

You need some high light lighting there- pretty washed out displays! Pity, great artist.

I don't see Lowry painting red eyes as a self portrait. Titled portrait of a man?

Enough with the yeahs and yes's commentary. Tell us what you really think.
