Lori Corradi - Local Artist eMail | Website Gallery | 805.701.0566

Lori Corradi was born and raised in New York City. She moved in 1986 to a small town in Southern California called Ojai (pronounced - O'High). Hiking the local trails with her Golden Retriever serves as an inspiration for her artistic expression. Ojai is world renowned as a destination for artists, collectors and outdoor enthusiasts.

Lori enjoys painting the landscapes of Southern California and those she encounters abroad during her travels. She enjoys painting "en plein air" (outside in the air). Lori's passion for the colors, textures, lights, shadows, patterns and simultaneous contrasts found in nature inspire her to paint her landscapes. She creates her art using multiple mediums including pastels, watercolors, oils and acrylics. Lori hopes that gazing upon one of her landscape paintings allows the viewer be soothed and healed by nature.

Lori has traveled abroad studying and painting with notable artists Bert Collins, Jannene Behl, Richard McKinley, Carlos Grasso, Jerry Yarnell, Donna Yeager, Brenda Matson, Urania Christy Tarbet, among others.
