Instructor: Lisa Strazza
After college for fine art at William Paterson University, Lisa studied at the Pan Art Institute. There she studied abstract expressionism and apprenticed with Peter Antonio Narducci, Italian-American painter and one of the founding fathers of Abstract Expressionism.
In 1989 Lisa won a prestigious award in the SoHo international art competition for her abstract work. She was later featured at The Station Gallery in Tribeca New York as one of the top 12 contemporary female artist in 2010.
Lisa taught at the Morris County Art Association and later at PACE in Parsippany New Jersey. She and her husband artist/photographer John Strazza opened their own art gallery in Warwick New York which they owned and operated for over nine years.
In 2016 Lisa and her husband moved to Southport, North Carolina. The Carolina Coast inspired a whole new body of work for her, while also teaching art classes both privately and at the Brunswick County Community College. She continued selling her paintings at local galleries.
Today Lisa Strazza is a well known and prolific oil painter, her work is well collected throughout the East coast and sells directly from her home studio and online shop LisaStrazza.com
