Zenaida Lorraine (born 2002) is an independent self taught artist based in Ireland. All of her art is handmade by her. Her work is mainly focused on oil paintings and charcoal drawings.

As a child she would make art sometimes as a distraction from the stressful environment she had no control over. And because she was made to think that art is ‘a waste of time’, she never took it seriously until the age of 16 as a way to cope with the stress and to get out of the place that was draining her. Despite the financial crises she spent hours of every day making art with the most basic art materials and polished her skills over time. She spent a lot of her time painting flowers because it was a challenging and fun subject to paint. She’s always had a desire to learn to paint portraits but after being laughed at when she painted her first portrait, she quit learning to paint them for some time. In march of 2020, she was commissioned to make a painting for someone related to her where she spent 7 to 10 hours everyday for three months on it but after getting conned by them, she was greatly discouraged and quit making art for some time after that.The years after that were brutal and that had a major impact on her health and in turn also on her art. Ever since moving to Ireland she recovered slowly and gained the strength and creative freedom to make art again.
