Facts
Originally from Ohio, Lois Ostrov’s 25-year career
in art teaching has directed her and her talents toward
national art success in South Florida.
Curious about textiles, which was her first fine art medium,
she began to research other studies and techniques of the
fine arts. Gathering the necessary tools of any one medium,
she discovered that the talent to originate and hone her
own technique within that medium was always there.
Beginning with watercolor paintings that won local acclaim,
she then continued to accomplish other disciplines such
as collage, found objects, and fine art photography. Ostrov
has developed an uncanny talent for composition which is
necessary in all art disciplines and proves her art to be
meritorious.
In her paintings, Ostrov daringly uses primary colors, which
are scarcely used in the United States, but are common in
South American and European art. This use of highly saturated
color has put her into local galleries and in addition,
her work has gained many generous Awards through both local
and national competitions.
With her collage pieces, paintings, and creative, yet edgy
photo work, requests from galleries such as Art Expressions,
Michael Josephs’ Gallery, New River Gallery, Leche-Vitrines
Art Alliance and Artist’s Eye Fine Art Gallery as
well as galleries from the New York scene have become a
mainstay.
Ms. Ostrov invites the viewer to enjoy, analyze and question
her work.
