Born into the hands of a very artistic mother in Whittier, California in the year 1958; Lisa Zook always had a plethora of different art supplies close at hand. Also being fortunate enough to have a highly devoted High School art teacher, who inspired her with his current works in progress, her desire to become an artist was very strong.

  Lisa enrolled and was accepted at The Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore, and after receiving a Bachelors Degree in Graphic Design and Illustration there in 1980, she immediately put her degree to use. Employed as a Technical Illustrator in Silver Spring, Maryland, Lisa worked for a company that designed and manufactured simulators for the aerospace and marine industry.

  Keeping her drawing skills honed, Lisa works from figure models two to three times a week. She paints the scene, or the figure that just plain grabs her. As of late, her artistic style has been described as impressionist or expressionist, often painting alla prima and en plein air. She tends to enjoy depicting a strong sense of light and shadow in her work, and loves to find what she likes to refer to as the 'hard lines' and 'lost edges' in a variety of subject matter.

  Currently residing in Toledo, Ohio, Lisa has won numerous awards, entering local gallery exhibitions and shows.
