Lisa Cowan

Bio:

Lisa Cowan is a painter living in Leawood, KS. Her landscapes, portraits, abstracts are created through an exploration of materials and methods that call viewers to focus their attention on both the how and the what of that which is being portrayed. With painterly applications, expressive brush strokes that build three-dimensional surfaces, and her love and intuitive knowledge of how colors go together, her paintings work to suggest moods that match their methodologies. Largely focused on the landscapes and faces of people and animals she knows well, her work illuminates the powerful presence of those familiar with her life.
