Lisa James
Lisa James is a self-taught contemporary abstract artist based in Cheshire, England.
She works in acrylic paint and glazes to create highly textured artwork. Lisa’s inspiration comes from the power and beauty of nature, which she infuses with a sense of motion and movement.
By working intuitively, she creates bold and dynamic compositions that convey vulnerability and strength. Lisa’s artwork often suggests the serene beauty of a sunrise, the strength of an ocean wave, or the power and movement of a stunning cloud formation. To create texture on the canvas, she uses palette knives and various mediums before layering acrylic paint and rich glazes to add depth and character. Her colour blending technique creates a soft, dreamy feel, building harmony and balance over the layers.
Each new piece of Lisa’s work can bring a sense of vulnerability and rawness, like getting to know someone for the first time. The titles for her work evolve as she paints and connects with the piece, giving it a personality.
Her aim is to spark curiosity and emotion in her viewers, creating a unique visual experience that allows them to feel a sense of inner peace, calm, and curiosity.
