Lisa Egglestone

I enjoyed a long and successful career as an interior designer, helping clients create spaces that felt both beautiful and deeply personal. Throughout those years, art was never far from my life—I have always painted, returning to it time and time again alongside my design work.

My artistic journey evolved further during my time living in Australia, where I had the privilege of studying traditional oil painting techniques under the guidance of a master artist. That experience refined my understanding of composition, tone, and texture. While I ultimately returned to working with acrylics—my preferred medium—I continue to incorporate many of the techniques I developed during my training in oils.

Today, my work is driven by a love of abstract painting, particularly the interplay of colour, tone, and texture. I am passionate about creating pieces that feel both expressive and harmonious, often working with carefully considered palettes to complement a client’s space. Each painting is an individual creation, designed not only to stand alone as a piece of art, but to enhance and reflect the atmosphere and personality of the room it inhabits.
