Lisa grew up along the Mississippi River, exploring every nook and cranny.. both on the water and off, with her family. Her special talent is color, blending and a sensitivity to the joys that maps hold for many of us. Her maps are often described as being among the most beautiful of their sort available today. Her maps may be found through the length and breadth of the United States and her her art has embellished book covers, CD covers, and Madison Avenue brochures. Lisa fell in love with Montana when she worked at Swiftcurrent Inn at Glacier Nation Park as a college student. It was there she first experienced the mountains she passionately illuminates in her maps. She now lives in Kalispell.
