Sydney Lemos was the son of painters William and Mabel Lemos. He studied at the San Francisco Institute of Art. After service in World War One, he lived in Santa Cruz. In the 1930s, he moved to Alameda. The bulk of his career was between 1920 and 1944 when he died. He went to the San Francisco Art Institute and was friends with Pedro Lemos (no relation) and Maynard Dixon. He was considered a fine California impressionist artist by his peers. Sydney’s parents Mabel and William were both artists in Santa Cruz, and his aunt, William’s sister, who lived in Chicago, was an artist as well.
