Lisa Williams

I began painting at an early age but pursued a professional career in education.  Eight years ago, after almost three decades of teaching, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and decided to retired.  I’ve been plagued with bouts of exhaustion, weakness and pain which have reduced my independence and mobility at times.  But, I’m lucky to have more good days than bad.  On those good days, I pour precious energy into my art, letting the colors and textures reflect my life and struggles.  Therefore, the pieces I create, most often represent the marriage of harmony and discord, both in my world and the world around me.
