Lisa maintains a studio practice and shares this work with students. Lisa has high expectations for her work and professional growth, communicates these expectations to students, and shares her progress.  She encourages students to share their independent work to develop a community of artists who support one another in their creative endeavors. Students share their artwork to develop an artistic community of trust and an open dialogue of ideas that can lead to inspiration for artwork. Lisa believes a flexible, dynamic, innovative, and open studio environment is the best way to support the flow of creative energy.
