The spectacular scenery which surrounds Lisa on Royal Deeside bears a huge presence within her work, most notably the ethereal quality light possesses as it is cast upon landscapes and seascapes. Working in oils, Lisa focuses on the creation of dramatic skies and whimsical portrayals of mountains, lochs and the sea atop fine linen board and plywood panels. She strives to capture beauty by balancing hues and manipulating brushstrokes, creating light and depth by exposing the layers beneath, until the image emerges. Having grown up on the coast, Lisa is drawn to the sea in particular. Taking her inspiration from the stunning Outer Hebrides, the dramatic seas, islands and beaches inform her work and provide a reference for her colourful portrayals of this stunning location.
