Lorette C. Luzajic is an award winning mixed media artist and writer living in Toronto, Canada. Her work has been shown in hundreds of local galleries and other venues over the years, in both solo and group exhibitions, as well as in around the world, in Edinburgh, Los Angeles, Brooklyn, New Orleans, New Zealand, Australia, Ireland, Tunisia, Mexico, and more. Lorette graduated from Ryerson University with a degree in journalism, but ended up pursuing the creative life she had always dreamed of. Both her writing and her visual artwork are inspired by art history, literature, especially poetry, other forms of human creativity, and her travels in other countries. Lorette celebrates the intersection of writing and art as editor ofThe Ekphrastic Review, a journal she founded in 2015 that is devoted to poetry inspired by art. She teaches workshops in both mixed media collage and ekphrastic writing.
