Those that know Lisa call her the “Flower Lady”. Her career started as a horticulturist that traveled the world in search of the next new flower to introduce to garden center consumers. She has since pursued the journey of art; currently she focuses on painting with watercolor. Lisa describes the watercolor medium as “yoga for my brain”. With her watercolor work, Lisa continues to explore the beauty of flowers, as well as other natural themes such as water-based landscapes and various fish species. These themes are inspired by her homes in both Florida and Michigan, and in both locations Lisa facilitates open studios to bring art lovers together to develop their skills. “Painting takes me to my happy place, and I hope that I can bring others to that happy place as they view my paintings.”
