Lisa Manes-James Paintings
Based in California’s Sonoma County, Lisa Manes-James is a retired art teacher whose work is inspired by her physical, sensory and emotional connections to natural environments. Her non-objective paintings explore the essence of nature through color, organic shapes and varied textures. Originally from the Central San Joaquin Valley in California, Lisa holds a BA and a teaching credential in Art from California State University, Fresno and a master of fine arts degree in fine art in painting from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. Lisa works intuitively with brushes and tools, adding and removing paint according to her instincts. She paints in oil, a medium she finds to be sensuous and rich. For the artist, the experience of painting is a metaphor for the internal and external forces that shape the soul. Her ultimate intention is to cultivate an awareness of the relationship between the natural world and human emotions, experiences and existence.
