NEXT EXHIBTION-Melbourne Affordable Art Fair-27-30 August with Lithic Gallery

Itta Somaia is an Australian-born contemporary landscape artist whose vibrant work celebrates colour, nature, hiking, and travel. Of Czech and Indian heritage, and an artistic family ,her paintings weave together cultural roots with the adventures and experiences that have shaped her life.

Her distinctive style bursts onto the canvas through bold, textured movement—created with oil and acrylic paints—often painted en plein air amid the landscapes she explores on foot, or in her home studio nestled in the Macedon Ranges of country Victoria.

As a third-generation artist and trained geologist, Itta uniquely blends art and science: she paints not just the visible beauty above ground, but also contemplates the ancient rocks and geological stories beneath, adding profound depth and dimension to every piece.

Her collectors span Australia, the United Kingdom, Brazil, India, Greece, and the Czech Republic. Through her art, Itta’s mission is clear: to send light and colour around the world, and to bring the serenity and joy of the countryside into homes everywhere.
