About Lisa Seaman Art

My painting practice is about curiosity. What inspires me today? How can I paint it? What will it look like?

During the past year, I’ve been painting landscapes, birds, and friends’ pets. I typically use a palette knife because I like the chunkier style. My work is impressionistic, bold, loose, and colorful.

I find painting takes courage. Sometimes it takes a kick in the butt to get going. When I’m feeling more tentative, I like to do small multiples. I often make hand-painted greeting cards as a way to get started.

Painting is also meditative for me. I like the feeling of getting lost in the art. I like the feeling of waking up in the morning thinking about what I’ll paint next.

Painting has opened my eyes to the world around me. I now see colors, shadows, clouds, plants, and landscapes in new ways. This brings me joy and even more curiosity. Ooh, I want to paint this, too!

I paint out of my home studio in Boulder, Colorado. Contact me if you’d like to visit.
