"I never aspired to be an painter although my life was always about art and design since the moment I could hold a pencil. When I finally made my escape from the Northeast and moved to an island filled with warm light and brilliant tropical colors I wanted to express the beauty with watercolors. Having never used the medium before, I had no preconceptions but set out to translate all that I saw. I never make conscious decisions about design or color choice, but instead rely on instinct to guide me and with my Muse hovering near I let it unfold, happen.
I am forever grateful for this gift -this place to communicate.

A fter graduation from Rhode Island School of Design, Lois opened a textile studio in New Jersey and became one of the leading textile stylist artists working in the New York industry. A vacation to the Cayman Islands changed her direction. She discovered a love of the tropics, relocated to Grand Cayman and began to paint the colors and light that fascinated her. Her textile business evolved blissfully into a life and love of painting. Lois often says she never imagined her life as a painter but now that she is an established fine artist, she can imagine nothing else.
A resident of Grand Cayman during the 1990’s, The National Gallery of the Cayman Islands includes Lois’s work in their permanent collection and
the Ritz Carlton Grand Cayman commissioned five watercolors for the lobby of the hotel.
She is currently represented on the island by several galleries and her business Cayman Colors art inspired items to gift shops, hotels plus providing individual custom gifts for events and groups.
T he move back to the states in 2000 proved very successful. Lois's art was discovered in Miami by the owner of PI Fine Art of Ontario and today over twenty of her paintings are published and catalogued by that international Fine Art company. Through publication, her colorful and serene tropical art grace walls throughout the world, in hotels, resorts, offices, medical centers and private homes. Last year, her work was chosen by Home Goods and featured throughout their stores in the southern states. Original commissioned paintings are in many private collections and hotels including Marriott hotels in Orlando, Destin, Naples and more recently her commissioned watercolor for the historic Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach was installed in over 200 rooms. Little Palm Island, a five star resort in the Florida Keys also features her work throughout the resort and gift shops.
The Gallery Store, Lois Brezinski Artworks opened in November 2012 , is located in the heart of charming Delray Beach, Florida.
Filled with original art, prints, ceramic tiles hand painted glass, sea glass gifts and items imprinted with her signature images, the Gallery is a culmination of her life in the fine art and business world.
