Lisa began painting at the age of ten and continued her art education through High School. As an Art Major in college, she gained inspiration from a diverse combination of classes and informative professors. Learning to look at things differently gave her the freedom to experiment and develop her own style. From college, Lisa went on to earn an Associate Degree in Advertising Design from the Colorado Institute of Art. She then worked at an Ad Agency as a layout Artist and Art Director. After raising a family she worked as a Retail Manager for 15 years before retiring. In 2022 Lisa began painting again. She has been fortunate enough to have participated in countless group exhibitions on Long Island and California including the Biennial at The Heckscher Museum of Art. Solo Shows at Daniel Gale Southebyʼs In Northport, The Copiague Memorial Library, Jack Jackʼs Coffee House in Babylon and The Calling Bell in Huntington. In July of 2026, Lisa displayed her paintings in a two-person exhibition with a sculptor at The BAFFA Art Gallery in Sayville, where she sold 4 paintings. After receiving several awards, opportunities and support from the art community, she hopes to continue to thrive and grow. Painting has brought fulfillment to Lisaʼs life and the journey has just begun.
