Lisa Lightman
Girls of Juarez: fabric, oil, acrylic, on board, 2007

2007

About the Item

Girls of Juarez was painted in honor of the multitude of women killed in Ciudad Juárez during the late 2000s. The painting includes collaged elements of paper and cloth to tell a story. The primarily gray background and black imagery adds to the mood of the imagery. The board, including three inch and unpainted framed sides, was custom built by a local carpenter in San Francisco. The black border in the original photograph is not part of the painting. Lisa Lightman Fine Art I started to make art in my mid-thirties. I took a few adult education classes. One class changed everything. Draw whatever you want, however you want. I leaned toward abstraction. It was liberating to make art that was generated by the myriad of emotions that floated on the surface of my life at that time. How I make art has evolved slowly. The willingness to see colors and shapes in a landscape or on a kitchen counter, or feel a mood or emotion, all rendered through paints, pencils and other materials, are only a few of the infinite filters that land on the surface. I understand that each mark or color choice, or the final painting, is recognized as a moment in time not to be matched by any other moment in time. Additional photographs provide detailed information of color and texture.
