Lisa Riehl is from Victoria, BC, and is a West Coast landscape artist known for bold, impressionistic paintings inspired by Vancouver Island. Working in oils, acrylics, and watercolour sketchbooking, she encourages creative play over perfection through her course "It’s Never Too Late to Create"

"When I’m working on a canvas, focusing there for hours at a time, it’s like I’m in a meditation, reaching deep down into the core of my being. What I create from there seems to have its own energy."
