About
Background
Lisa Hayden is a contemporary abstract artist creating colorful paintings in an abstract expressionist style. She studied painting at the University of Miami, where the vibrant colors of the warm ocean, palm trees, and pastel houses have had a lasting influence on her art for over 25 years.
A creative force in her work is a love of nature and the vision that nature is a perfect representation of abstract expressionism itself. Abstract expressionist style uses the canvas as a whole and expresses time and feeling through motion and color.
Medium
A number of different mediums are used to create the artwork, including acrylics, fluid acrylics, alcohol inks, and encaustics. Each medium has its own way of expressing feeling through color and texture differences
Inspiration
The ocean and its colors and fluidity is visible in many of her pieces, whether it's the bright Florida waters or a winter's day on Cape Cod. The textures and colors in nature inspire her throughout the changing seasons in New England.
