About the Item

Humming Along III, Oil on Panel, 16 x 12 Inches, is one of a series of paintings, watercolors, mosaics and prints by Lisa Houck, a very established artist from Boston with a large following devoted to her exceptional work reminiscent of Matisse and Aborigine art, with gorgeous color and a sensibility both playful and quite serious that is uniquely her own. Houck has also executed many large public art commissions for interior and exterior sites in Boston and nationwide which are ambitious murals in oil or mosaic located in hospitals, libraries, playgrounds and other public buildings.
