My name is Lisa Greene and as an artist, I love exploring different mediums to express my emotions. Over the years, I have experimented with various techniques, styles, and mediums to create eclectic and unique artwork. Whether I am creating a large-scale masterpiece or a small sketch, I find joy in every piece of art I create. Although I have experimented with various mediums, I have a special affinity for oil paints on canvas, photography, and sculpture. I find inspiration in realism, impressionism, post-impressionism, neoclassicism, and romanticism styles, while also experimenting with the concepts of surrealism, abstract expressionism, and contemporary art. My approach to art is to find beauty in everything, and I hope that my art inspires the same appreciation and admiration in others that I feel when creating it. Sometimes, art doesn't need to have a meaning; it can simply be a beautiful representation of an emotion or idea.

Michael Whais, Hamburg, New York (May 7, 1984 – November 10, 2015)
Losing a loved one is a difficult time that we all have to face at some point in our lives. One way to cope with the loss and pay tribute to their memory is by painting memorial portraits of them. This not only acts as a therapeutic outlet for our grief but also serves as a beautiful way to honor their legacy.

As a child, I would visit this Wonder of the World often, I have always been in awe of its size and power. It amazes me how full of beauty the world we live in has and how profound experiences we have as children stay with us all of our lives.

Lisa Greene is a talented artist who finds inspiration in a wide variety of sources. She believes that art should not necessarily have a political message, but rather should simply be beautiful or thought-provoking in its own right. Lisa's ultimate goal is to open her own art gallery, where she can showcase her own work as well as that of other artists who may not have access to traditional gallery settings. Lisa has been self-taught for most of her life, thanks in part to the encouragement of her family, who are also talented artists. She has passed on her love of art to her two sons and continues to hone her craft through independent and academic study.
