Lyzz Lundberg Sidebotham was born, raised, and resides in Central Illinois. Lyzz earned a bachelor’s degree in Studio Art from Illinois State University's Wonsook Kim School of Art while working full time as a single mom after years in the local art/music/culinary scenes. After a hiatus from fine art to focus on a traditional tattooing career, Lyzz found herself back into a studio practice. With fervent determination to incite discourse with hard-edge merging with sensual gushes of color, Lyzz shifts between the disciplines of painting and conceptual installation work to fully effectuate engagement. Her work reveres local and site-specific architecture and salvaged objects with colorful abstraction and frantic organization in pursuit to capture the ennui of modernity and liberation through hedonism and intimacy. 

​

Lyzz has received numerous accolades for her work from Central Illinois to Los Angeles to Budapest. 

When she isn't working she is wringing all the joy she can from this weird world with her soulmate Harry, and caring for their children, pets, and garden.
