Louise ("Lou") Kasza doesn't have enough boxes to check off for her
media on her COAL renewal application. A painter and print maker,
she creates with oil, acrylic, watercolor and printer’s ink as well as
with a camera and her computer.
Born in Chicago, Lou, trained in architecture and theater. Besides
creating art, she works as one of several miniature building
designers for Lemax. She has studied acrylic painting with Robert
Burridge, printmaking with Tony Richards, watercolor with
Lian Zhen and COAL’s own Diane Adams.
As a painter, her pieces are part of private and corporate
collections in the United States, Canada and Europe. As a designer,
her miniature buildings have been manufactured and sold worldwide
through Lemax. She is a past President and lifetime member of COAL
and has worked in almost every position available in the
organization. She has recently stepped down from the Board of
Directors to allow others to experience the possibilities of helping
out the COAL Gallery. She hopes her art inspires you to do more of
your own!
