About This Artist

Artist Name: Lisa Marie McManus

People tell me that when they look at my landscape paintings they feel like they are in that landscape. Good! Because I’m moved, over and over again, to build a place on the canvas, to remember and feel what I felt in that place. I push and pull color, light and dark, line and shape until the image matches my experience of that place. I’m increasingly drawing on my visual imagery to invent landscapes and finding there are a lot of scenes living in my head. Somehow when I do, I feel as if I’m painting not just one place but many, all at the same time.

The flower paintings are more graphic, more design, a sort of in-your-face color splash. I’m experimenting with how much line I can get away with before the image completely flattens out. I’m also experimenting with glazing, a method of adding color on top of other colors in ways that let you see both. I’d like to see if I can get the colors underneath to glow up through the colors on top.

Painting is not me just recording my visual experiences. It’s an emotional and cognitive dance of imagination and experience that adds intrigue and surprise to my daily life. If you are interested in seeing it for yourself, stop in during Open Studio Saturdays or make an appointment to come visit my studio. I love to have visitors.
