Nothing is ever still in nature; leaves are always trembling, birds are always flying, even tree trunks sway in the wind. Movement is life. Lisa tries to capture this movement, play of light, and constant motion in her paintings.\u00a0 Treading a wobbly\u00a0line between abstraction and realism, her paintings vibrantly embody both.\u00a0 Life is about colour, air, motion and sound. Lisa's work offers a glimpse into this world.

Birch trees proudly sport their scars. Every mark on their white skin is a reminder of lost branches and harm inflicted. The more scars the more majestic and beautiful they appear to us.
\nIn a time of Photoshop and the search for the perfect selfie Instagram post, I invite the viewer to investigate their own scars (physical and emotional) and to celebrate them.
\nWear them with pride. They are evidence of a life lived.

My work is about joy. Capturing the joy you feel when you are present in nature. Humanity is connected to nature; our place within it and the energy we derive from this relationship. As the world around us becomes more and more fraught with stress and uncertainty, there is an even deeper need to connect with the earth and consciously integrate joy in our lives. My work explores the unique forms and colours of nature and how they are an integral part of our lives \u2013 bringing contentment and grounding.
