Juror of Selection
In college, Ms. Mishler studied photography and media arts and spent 20 years as an interior designer. While working full-time, she also found time for taking art classes and painting. After she retired, she continued to develop her painting skills and became certified to teach at The Drawing Studio (TDS). Today she teaches “Abstract Painting” classes at TDS and for a variety of arts organizations in Arizona.
Lisa’s early years as an artist were influenced by the work of Paul Cezanne, Joan Miro, and Marc Chagall. Her work has evolved over time. As an emerging artist, she was known for her dreamlike watercolors and imaginative landscapes. More recently, she studied intensively with noted painter Nicolas Wilton and has developed her own recognizable abstract style on the canvas. Today she works mostly in acrylics creating abstract landscapes. She has become more experimental in this work adding texture using state-of-the-art mediums and incorporating collage on the canvas. Recent mixed media work, while mostly acrylic based, includes watercolor, encaustic, and even oil paint as part of her evolved experimental approach and digital work combined with her paintings.
“I want to be known as a versatile artist as I delight in experimentation and discovery,” said Lisa in a recent conversation. “I am inspired by everyday encounters – my family, my dogs, daily early morning walks through the desert. I bring these experiences to the studio, and then I paint. I’m always amazed by what appears on the canvas.”
