Lisa Faulkner Wright was born in Truckee, CA and spent her first 12 years at Lake Tahoe. The next 12 years she lived in the Sacramento area. Lisa received her BA degree from California State University-Sacramento, then her passion for ceramic sculpture and printmaking took her to the University of Wisconsin-Madison where she earned her MFA degree.
She began her teaching career at Sierra Nevada College in Incline Village, Nevada and the University of Nevada, Reno. During these years Lisa maintained a successful studio and gallery displaying ceramic sculpture, handbuilt porcelain pottery and watercolors.
Lisa and her husband, Bill Wright, explore the colorful canyons and vast flora and fauna of the Red Rock canyons as well as the alpine vistas of the Sierras.
Together Lisa and Bill live in Las Vegas, and have 3 grown children and 4 beautiful grandchildren. Lisa is a member of Watercolor West, the NV Watercolor Society, the CA Watercolor Association, and the National Watercolor Society.
I have known Lisa since grade school, and she has always been an extremely talented artist. Her paintings are fabulous! She has a way of capturing the essential beauty in everything she paints. Keep painting forever and day, Lisa. I love your art! You help make life more beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank-you Sirona for your kind words. A fine teacher once told me that adding to the world's storehouse of beauty was a valid pursuit. I took his words to heart and I will never stop making art.
