Lisa's Poetry and Collage Art
I am the third generation in my family to pursue a career in the Arts. My work is defined as 2 dimensional mixed media collage. I incorporate vintage and handmade papers, found objects, plaster, clay, acrylics and original poetry. As you look through the gallery you will see that I use traditional canvases and wood as my background of my work. You will also see the use of vintage and found pieces as my canvas to create.
I have always found it so rewarding to renew something that someone has held on to and cherished throughout the years. It may no longer be in a functional state but it has an emotional connection to them. Like all of us there comes a time when we have to let things go. Instead of disposing of it , many donate their once treasures to venues that resale. I purchase these pieces at shops that are set up as non-profit only. All of their proceeds go back to the community to help those in need. For this reason please know that all of my works are one-of-a-kind.
