LOU PIZZI
 


At the age of eleven Lou Pizzi left Liguria to live in Milan. In 2000 he returnd to Liguria, to be near the sea - the inspiration and poetry for his paintings.
He started experimenting with different techniques at an early age until at 20 he settled on oil.  Having tried different styles, he found the one best suited to him.
 
August 2002 Lou was presented with an "Award of Merit" by Art Challenge, America.

July, August, September, October and November Lou was "featured artist" and "artist of the month" in three different galleries. 
 
One of his paintings "Dopo La Tempesta" won two international prizes.
 
Easter 2003, Lou’s paintings started a well received six-month tour of Italy, with an exhibition in Liguria.
 
May/June 2003 “The Circle Gallery” in Edinburgh  held an exhibition of three painters, including Lou Pizzi.
 
November 2003, Lou’s paintings participated in various collective shows around Ireland, both Northern and Southern.
2004 –2005 after various successful exhibitions in Great Britain Lou became “collectable” and a restaurant in Italy bought a large number of Lou’s paintings. They re-decorated the restaurant to show the paintings to their best effect. A legal studio soon followed, and a prestigious cocktail bar commissioned Lou to do a painting for their refurbished premises. This has since become their logo and appears on all their menus, advertisements etc.
 
Lou had numerous commissions to paint portraits of horses for their owners.
 
His paintings are on show in galleries in many different countries.

Lou’s career has gone from strength to strength.
