Lisa Goren was born in California and raised in NYC. And yet, she has dreamed of Polar Landscapes since she was in her teens. Her first trip took her to Antarctica where she was inspired and captivated by the landscape. She has also traveled to Iceland and Alaska to increase her understanding of the Polar Regions. Her watercolors show an unfamiliar landscape in a new light. By using vibrant colors and taking risks with different surfaces, she makes the viewer reevaluate their understanding of both these landscapes and their beliefs in the potential of the medium. Her works create questions about the nature of abstraction and our planet as many of her pieces are representations of unfamiliar terrains. Lisa's work can be found in personal collections all over the world, from Australia to Iceland, to much of the United States. She was awarded a place on the 2013 voyage of The Arctic Circle, an artist residency sailing near the North Pole. This "trip of a lifetime" is just the beginning of the next phase of her Polar work. Lisa has been working out of Boston, Massachusetts for the past 25 years. www.lisagorenpaintings.com Rocklen, Melissa 97 Wachusett Street #1 Jamaica Plain MA 02130 617-501-6972 [email protected] rocklendesigns.com Shishko, Adrienne 56 Russell Street Brookline MA 02446 617-686-3993 [email protected] adrienneart.net Sisson, Kevin 80 Jewett Street Newton MA 02458 301-693-3525 [email protected] (Associate member) Trueblood, Amy 260 Perham Street West Roxbury MA 02132 617-323-2621 [email protected] ajensen.com Page2of8 ~~~ DEMO SCHEDULE 2016 10 March Lisa Goren Watercolors 14 April Bonnie Lerner Gelli Plates/Printing without a Press 12 May Kurt Neumann Framing for Home & Exhibition NAA News & Opportunities The NAA Annual Soiree Art that reflects: A Sense of Scandinavia Start painting!
