Welcome!
I'm Lisa Johnson Finch, an artist who resides in the barrier island community of North Carolina known as the Outer Banks (OBX). I hold both a degree in Fine Art (minor in Education), as well as a Commercial Art degree with the emphasis on design in marketing. I am a North Carolina Certified Visual Arts Teacher (k-12), and previously taught in the Dare County public school system. My artistic interests are varied, including drawing and painting, sculpture, photography, ceramics, tesserae mosaics, and graphic design. I work with a wide range of subject matter including portraiture (people or pet!), still life, and landscape, particularly the coastal scenic beauty that is a part of everyday life here in the OBX. However, my favorite subject, by far, involves the Mother/Child relationship....depicting children and babies, maternity, and breastfeeding images. A few of my paintings are displayed in OBX galleries, shops, and restaurants. Many others, as well as the more unique pieces such as sculptures, mosaics, etc., are available for sale directly from me via Internet, at a considerable savings without the added 'middleman' expense. Please browse the photos posted here of artwork currently available for sale. Contact me should you have questions about any particular piece or if you desire additional photos or information. I also do commissioned work from photographs, so let me know if there's a certain subject you'd like me to paint. Finally, be on the lookout in the near future for some new decorative items! I've been experimenting lately with various craft techniques, including decorative painting, faux finishes, trompe l'oeil, art glass, and decoupage. I've been creating some pretty neat stuff for my own home, and I'm expecting to expand by offering some of these items for sale to the public once perfected!
