Artist Bio

In 2020 at 65 it had been decades since I made a body of art. Since then, I’ve been honored with 3 first-place awards in photography. The University of Delaware gave me a one-woman show. My work has been seen from coast to coast including several times through the HMVC Gallery in NY and Las LaGuna Gallery in CA. Pictorem based out of Montreal, Canada, has me as a featured artist. Two books were presented to me. Nobis II and Emerald Coast Review.

The photographs I create are abstractions in fluidity, rich in joy, color, pattern, and curiosity. I’ve been printing on aluminum.

I grew up in the Mid-Atlantic and later spent much of my young adult life in New England. For the past 28 years, the Deep South has been home. I have a Master's in Social Work and worked as a social worker and a realtor. In the South, I married and raised a daughter. I also helped plant the seed that grew into the Mississippi Children’s Museum and worked at 2 art museums as a docent for 17 years.

As my images find their way into various exhibits, lives, homes, and businesses, I hope feelings of joy and peace nourish viewers. Pictorem shows all my art photos for sale through the website https://www.pictorem.com/profile/Lisa.Joy.Newcomb
