About the Artist
|
 |
Lisa M. Nelthropp, Primitive Muralist and Surface Designer, has been designing for over 18 years. She is certified and has extensive training in over 75 different finishes, including murals, woodgraining, stone, marble, plaster, glazing, and the art of Trompe l'Oeil. Lisa's goal is to imitate the character of the materials and above all to integrate them with their surroundings.
Through use of texture, perspective, the subtle harmony of color, and the play of light and shadow, Lisa creates timeless textures and finishes with passion, craftsmanship, and a quality of excellence. Lisa has studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Surface Design and is schooled in the styles of Rufus Porter and The Hudson River Valley Painters. Her work has been featured in Yankee Magazine and N.H. Chronicle, and she has also been juried twice to be a designer in the Music Festival Showcase House (2002 and 2003).
Following the tradition of the 19th century itinerant limners, Lisa travels frequently throughout the East Coast creating custom artwork for her clients.
