Lisa Houck is a highly established Boston artist with a large following devoted to her exceptional paintings, watercolors, mosaics, prints and public art projects. At times reminiscent of Folk and Aborigine art as well as Matisse, inspired as well by James Audubon and Hokusai, Houck is as known for her gorgeous and elegant color as a sensibility both playful and quite serious that is uniquely her own. Among the many large public art commissions the artist has completed for interior and exterior sites in Boston and nationwide in mosaic and mural format are permanent installations for The Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Children's Hospitals in Boston and Waltham, The Frieda Garcia Park, Fort Point Channel, The Cambridge Senior Center, and 4 libraries in Broward County, Florida.
