Poppies fan out from a round vase, their white petals and yellow centers catching the shifting light. Painted with a palette knife, the composition builds a rich, buttery texture and a sense of movement. The impressionist still-life painting captures the beauty of wildflowers bursting to life in springtime.
About the Artist
Artist Lisa Elley paints impressionist landscapes full of texture and movement. Using her signature impasto technique, she captures the beauty of California and scenes from her travels. "More than any one location, I'm inspired by the atmosphere, the feeling of standing somewhere and knowing it will stay with you," says Lisa. She grew up on a small farm in New Zealand, where the lush countryside shaped her early artistic vision and inspired her to pursue a career in fine arts. Passionate about experiencing new things, she moved to London, New York, and Florida before eventually settling in the San Francisco Bay Area. She works at her studio in the historic San Jose cannery, with a 30-foot ceiling and full of natural light. When not making art, Lisa spends her time with her family.
