—Robert Lowe, Architect, Feng Shui Expert

“Mira touches souls... not only with her art but with who she is BEING... The light has given her the gift of art.”
—Kelly Christensen

 


A contemporary abstract colorist, Mira Lisa has received training from such prominent instructors as Françoise Gilot (Picasso’s enjaneau), Dayna Mason and Karen Russo. A native to Southern California, Mira Lisa developed a strong foundation for color, texture, design, and originality. Her works are a colorful movement of abstract expressionism. Mira Lisa is strongly inspired by Chagall, Matisse, Kandinsky and Van Gogh. Each painting is a visual journey. To behold one of Mira Lisa’s paintings is to take an inner voyage where a vibrant and vital reality merges into daily life.

Privately collected throughout two decades, Mira Lisa makes her public debut as an abstract colorist in 2007. The artist resides in Laguna Beach, California.

She articulates her mission and process with poetic style:
"As I begin a work, I am struck by what I am searching for: what I am inside – an embracing of myself from within. The thoughts of Paul Gauguin’s words stream through my mind, ‘Art is either plagiarism or a revolution,’ a revolution of abandoning the ego and embracing my true self, the life intelligence that sees through my eyes looking back at itself. I seek to share with humanity, make offerings to humanity, and at the same time, liberate my spirit with beauty, liberate my spirit with color."
