Lorraine Lewitzka
Lorraine Lewitzka was born in 1952 and spent her adult life in the commercial art fields as a fashion and illustrative artist in black and white, after a childhood of constant observation, drawing and painting.
In 1986, with the encouragement of her Late husband, Terry, she began to explore the medium of water colours and four years later she was tutored in water colour in the US before continuing her art education at the Slade School of Art, London, where she discovered a new medium in oils in life painting.
On her return to Australia in 1991 Lorraine staged her first exhibition, with good success.
She concentrates on traditional and contemporary still life, figurative subjects and commissioned portraits.
