Seattle artist Lisa Snow Lady has a BA in Art History and a BFA in painting from the University of Washington and has been a practicing artist for over 25 years. Employment as a graphic designer for 15 of these years contributed to her proficiency in layout and design and her ability to interact with clients to serve a variety of print media needs.

Lisa's interest in botanical forms and recent education in ornamental horticulture inspire her mixed process paintings. In these works she layers paper, ink and paper to express fleeting beauty and renewal.

Her love of travel has taken her throughout western Europe with an extended stay in Holland where she studied the relationship between the arts and Christianity. She is inspired by the richness of Turkey and the natural beauty of to the Hawaiian Islands and yet finds inspiration in the sea and surroundings of her native Pacific Northwest. With watercolor she enjoys capturing landscape and architecture in a fresh and spontaneous way, later turning these sketches into acrylic paintings in her studio.

Lisa exhibits widely in solo, group and juried shows and is represented by SAM Gallery Rentals and Sales in Seattle, Museo in Langley, Washington, and Gallatin River Gallery in Montana. Lisa's work is in the collections of Swedish Hospital, the University of Washington Medical Center, Evergreen Hospital and Safeco Corporation. Her art has twice been featured on the cover of the University of Washington Botanic Gardens Bulletin and recently was selected for the Artist Series Label at Woodward Canyon Winery in Walla Walla, Washington.
