My name is Luiza Vizoli and I'm a full time professional artist, born in Europe, currently living and working in Minnesota.

My style of painting has evolved through years of exploration. Most of my works have a relief and a thick texture that give dimension to the piece.

Today, my main styles are contemporary abstract expressionism paintings, contemporary impressionist flowers and landscape paintings, abstract religious paintings and contemporary figurative paintings in oils and acrylics on stretched canvas or wood.

My ideas and my inspiration came from my travels, from my European route and from my dreams.My artwork is held in private and corporate collections in USA, Europe, Canada, Australia .

Thank you very much for stopping and reading about me and my art.
