About Lisa Bisbee Lentz. 
Her subject matter is focused into three courses: representational, abstract and figurative. She has sold hundreds of original pieces to private collectors. Using reference photos during her travels, she creates representational art illustrating her memory in the majority of her artwork. Using bold strokes and texture, the depiction is a gestural expression. Lisa explains, “The end result is a representational painting, and the best part is within it, I can remember the details of my environment when I took the photo.” For example, a coffee cup will trigger her memory of the long walk to the cafe, how hot the morning was, who she was with, the accent of the waiter, the conversation over the table and more.

In her “Jazz” series, the non-objective abstracts are diverse in method. Geometric forms, highly-blended contrasting colors, thick impasto texture and thin glazes all play a part in Lisa’s creations. In the “Cave Stories” body of work, Lisa’s figurative work is both abstract and representational sometimes depicting scenes of people gathering, dancing or storytelling. Acknowledging a successful career as an artist began with earning a BFA at Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) where she learned the principles and elements of design. Secondly, the work ethic valued in her upbringing helped to define the discipline to paint practically every day. And finally, family and friends support her creative endeavors which in turn encourages more steps towards success.

Early on in a creative career, Lisa Bisbee Lentz earned a living from developing websites and branding marketing materials for businesses and entrepreneurs. She attended Carnegie-Mellon University and graduated with a Bachelor of Art - graphic design, major - art history, minor from Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD). Lisa has created a collection of thousands: digital commercial art, designed posters, billboards, illustrations, catalogues, T-shirts, brochures, logos, rackcards, signs, advertisements, newsletters, photo-embellished images, videos and more, including an art history book, “A Brief History of Artists in Eastern North Carolina”.
The following paintings are showcasing some of my history of creating art.

en plein air on pollock street

In February 2011 to August 2012, Lisa Bisbee decided to make a commitment to paint each and every Saturday morning from 10am until Noon in front of Baxter's Studio 323, home of New Bern Artworks Gallery and working artisan studios.

Rain or shine, cold or rain, any sort of weather... except wind. Wind has blown the canvas and en plein air becomes dangerous and humorous to perform.

Many artists have joined in the conversations, tourists share their stories of hometowns, videographers, bloggers and journalists stopped by to capture moments.
