Karena (Kaz) Dalla Rosa (b. 1962, AU) is a visual artist based on the Bellarine Peninsula, Victoria, Australia.

Painting from an early age, she commenced a Fine Arts degree at Caulfield Institute before leaving to embark on a career as a musician. Karena has performed consistently in Melbourne and around Australia until recently returning to her first love of painting.

Using oils, she explores local places and landscapes of cultural and environmental significance.

In addition to her flora and landscape work are her abstracted ink paintings which explore geometric constructions of shape and color.
