Making art is a lifelong process, release and love for me. My inspiration comes from many things, among them, music, poetry, nature and the imagination continue to inspire me. Painting has been a part of my life since I was a child and my mother enrolled me in art classes. Mainly, I grew up in the South East and Germany due to my father's military career.
Later, I attended Auburn, University, where I was introduced to communication design. I continued to design, paint and experiment with sculpture, but realized I needed to grow as a visual artist and finished up my degree in Boston at the Massachusetts College of Art. During that time, I fell in love with silkscreen and experimented with combining painting and typography. After graduating, I’ve continued to explore and take painting classes with the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
Currently, I live in the North End of Boston, Massachusetts where I continue to paint, design and art direct projects for multiple clients. My favorite places that I have traveled are Tuscany, Italy, Santorini, Greece, Peru and Havana, Cuba. My acrylic paintings can be found at J. Todd Galleries in Wellesley Center and sometimes locally at shows. Feel free to send comments or contact me at lisa@lisafinch.com.
