Hi. I'm Lisa, an award-winning artist and art instructor who is insanely passionate about sharing the beauty of art.
Art has enriched my life, and I have happily dedicated my entire career to fine art. I began my artistic journey at the Fine Arts Program at the American Academy of Art in Chicago before moving to further studies at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis College of Art and Design and Atelier Lack in Minneapolis. I have been fortunate enough to train under nationally renowned artists.
My works can currently be seen in galleries throughout Minnesota, as well as businesses and private collections.
I find it most rewarding to create custom pieces for clients by learning about their artistic interests and preferences, and working hands-on with them to design a tailored piece for their home or office.

My Artistic Style
Never one to be confined or limited, my art style is multi-faceted. I create both abstract and realistic fine art.
My representational work embodies my response to the environment, particularly to the countryside and to the shades, shadows, and colors of early mornings and late afternoons. As I paint, I recall and re-experience the peace and freedom of the open air as well as the spectacular and captivating qualities of the great outdoors. This meditative act of creating art about real places inspires and centers me in my life.
When painting in abstract, I travel inward, exploring and responding to progressions of thoughts and emotions deep within my mind. Free of visual constraints, these intangible introspective meditations take no recognizable form. Instead, they manifest themselves as successive, unfolding, and spontaneous adventures in color, texture, and composition.
