Lucila Zentner

Biography

Lucila Zentner is an Australian artist working predominantly in oils. Lucila combines a love and practice of fine art with a career in medicine, practising as a Radiologist and Nuclear Medicine specialist. From early years in South America she has lived and worked in Regional Victoria and NSW over the last 10 years. She has now moved her studio to Sydney. There is a vibrancy and passion embedded in Lucia's paintings, and they are innovative in their depictions of landscape and still life. Ordinary views are transformed to be extraordinary and beautiful, always with a sense of freedom. Her very special sense of colour combines neutrals and texture to set bold unusual colours alight evoking a complexity of mood that dissolves the strong colours and marks that flow in patterns across her paintings. ” I paint to hold onto a moment to thrill the senses, to delight, to mourn and to live.
