Lisa was born in 1971 in Farnham, Surrey. She has lived in Farnham her entire life, completing her BA (Hons) degree in Fine Art at the University for the Creative Arts in 1995.

After a break of many years she returned to painting only two years ago and was chosen to appear in the opening exhibition of Life the Gallery alongside Mark Demsteader and other internationally renowned artists. Her work was also reviewed by the Daily Mirror Art Critic, Martin Newman, and appeared in the Arts section of Mirror on-line. Her paintings Simone and The Dalai Lama were both separately voted into the top 50 from thousands of worldwide entries in the Saatchi Showdown competition at The Saatchi on-line Art Gallery

Now married and the mother of two daughters, Lisa has established a wonderful working studio in the gardens of her home near Frensham Ponds. There she has covered a diverse range of subject matter and developed her expertise working in oil on canvas.

Her love of travel and inspiration in the diversity of humankind has led her to cover a range of fascinating studies from the media fuelled obsession with celebrity culture, to the calm reflective nature of the Dalai Lama.

“I love to use oil paint as the fluidity of the paint merges and flows to mirror my energy and emotions. I paint people and in particular their faces, as I find this both the most challenging and enjoyable. My paintings seek to capture more than just a photographic image of my subject, but also to include the person’s energy. I paint to express emotion: the emotion and expression of my subject and my reaction to it”
