Lucia Roohizadegan is a Melbourne-based artist, illustrator, and author. Her paintings are a celebration of light, colour, and tranquillity, and are primarily created using water-mixable oil and acrylic paints. Her artworks explore the delicate interplay between strength and fragility, drawing endless inspiration from the natural world in a style that fuses elements of abstraction and realism.
She has actively participated in various community art projects, including The Centenarian Portrait Project by Teenagers, receiving numerous art and writing awards. She is a two-time major award and People’s Choice Award winner of St Vincent de Paul Society’s Just Art competition and has exhibited at the Belconnen Arts Centre in Canberra, The Stables, Glen Eira City Council Gallery, the Camberwell Art Show, Sequel Gallery, Herring Island Gallery, Untether Gallery, iSquared Gallery, and the Bendigo Art Show.
In December 2023, her debut children’s picture book Ohromný Malý žralok, which she illustrated and co-authored with Katarina Roohizadegan, was published and distributed in major bookstores across Slovakia, Czechia, and Poland.
