Lisa Farrell is an abstract mixed media artist in Vancouver. She works intuitively with many materials in multiple layers, adding then subtracting by scraping, scratching and sanding back into the surface revealing the history below. She alternates between this intuitive, free play and a more critical approach where she analyses the design and composition, fine tuning the overall appearance. She builds up each piece over time, continuing to add layers with acrylic paint, pencil, markers, collage, and pouring mediums until the final piece reveals itself. She strives to achieve paintings that catch your eye from a distance and invite you to take a closer look to reveal the fine detail and texture up close.
