Adelia Armstrong Lutz (/lʌts/; June 25, 1859 – November 17, 1931) was an American artist active in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Lutz was born Adelia Ann Armstrong at the home of her maternal grandparents in Jefferson County, Tennessee.

[4][5] She later attended the Southern Home School in Baltimore and Augusta Seminary (Mary Baldwin College) in Staunton, Virginia.

[2] After returning to Knoxville, Lutz taught painting out of a studio located in the Kern Building on Market Square.

This League included among its members painters Lloyd Branson, Catherine Wiley, and Charles Krutch, photographer Joseph Knaffl, and architect George Franklin Barber.

[1] Lutz posed for one of Branson's earliest portraits in 1878,[8] and her studio was photographed by his partner, Frank B. McCrary, in the late 1880s.

[7] While Lutz occasionally painted portraits (especially of her children) and landscapes,[7] her favorite subject matter was flowers, especially hollyhocks,[8] which she also grew in her garden at Westwood.
