Lisa Grennell
After leaving school at a young age, I followed my passion and completed a Bachelor of Visual Art and Design, graduating from art school in 2010.
Trying to make ends meet and raising three children during this time, I defied all the odds to realize my dream.
I have a strong sense of family and the richness that children bring to our lives, and this is evident in the works that I create.
Children are my inspiration; my guiding light and I endeavour to invoke the nostalgia of childhood within my art.
My work largely consists of reverse hand-painting and silk screen printing on Perspex using acrylic paint, glitter, and gold leaf.
Sometimes the subject is floated within the frame creating a shadow. As daylight casts its glow on the works, so too does the shadow, thus bringing the subject to life.
