Inspiration for Lisa's paintings comes mostly from the Cornish landscape, in particular its fishing harbours and coves, and the coast on a stormy day with its shifting interplay of sea and sky.

Working across all media, but particularly mixed media, acrylic and watercolour, she often incorporates fragments of maps, photographs and documents to heighten the sense of place in her paintings.

She works into the collage with media including acrylics and oil pastels, using a variety of mark-making techniques and implements. She is happiest expressing herself in a fast, loose style that often veers towards abstraction and captures the immediacy of her surroundings.

She is a member of the St Ives Arts Club and the Cornwall Watercolour Society, and regularly exhibits at the St Ives Society of Artists.
