About Lisa
Creativity can take many forms and appear at any time in a person’s life. And so it has been for me.
It kept peeking out of me in small ways until after motherhood and study and a corporate career I now find myself with the time and the headspace to fully relax into creating.
The last decade has been spent in Tasmania leading pottery and watercolour workshops in my home studio and selling my wares through various retail outlets around the state with some exciting commissions and collaborations and detours. My brand name is/was Leap and Wander Studio, which then and now sums up my general approach to life.
My watercolour practice led to a search for something freer, with more expression and less rules. I found what I was looking for in abstract expressionism using mixed media with a primary focus on acrylics. And I feel like I am now off and running on a whole new exciting adventure.
I would love you to subscribe as a way to keep in touch. Social media is not dependable for that anymore. WE can beat the algorithm by connecting via email.
If you would like to personally view my paintings you can email me to arrange a day and time. I live in Tasmania 30 minutes from Hobart. While I do my best to show paintings realistically on the website and on Instagram there is nothing better than seeing them in person. email me - hello@lisajanewestart.com.au
