Artist Statement:
I am a self-taught artist,
therefore inquisitive instinct
and creative persistence are
undeniably the driving forces
in my art-making process. I
strive to capture an essence
of spirit and reveal a sense
of the sacred within creation,
whether via photography,
digital collages, or
mixed-media painting and
collage.
Currently I am pursuing a
Masters in Education,
specializing in Art Education,
at the University of Victoria,
BC, Canada. My final
exhibition & thesis will
explore the unification of
traditional art-making
processes and the digital
realm of art production. As a
teacher, the fusing of
traditional & photographic art
with digital technology serve
as concrete examples to teach
and compare/contrast the
elements of colour, shape,
line, form, tone and texture,
and principles of balance,
emphasis, harmony, unity, and
opposition.
Curiousity, determination,
experimentation, observation,
deduction, and perseverance
form the foundation of my
art-making process. I began
my career dedicated to
artistically photographing the
natural world, fascinating
people and architecture,
especially sacred sites, of my
travels. Since 1999, I began
fusing these images into new
forms within the digital
realm, utilizing Photoshop, as
well as traditional painting
and collage techniques.
I welcome commissions, and
enjoy working collaboratively
to create original works ...

Re: Sacred Serenity
“Sacred Serenity consisted of
a number of photographs,
grouped according to a variety
of thematic impressions. To
embody values and ideals in
visual work is an intense
objective. Lisa’s photographs
attempt to do this in unique
and dynamic ways. Composition
is highly refined, having a
