Pink Rose Photograph

Born in Germany, raised in NYC, lives in Los Angeles. Alisa has been an artist since a young child who loved her finger paints. Her work is based in reality; with just a whisper of what might be..or perhaps a new way of looking at what is already there. Photographs are in camera work mostly; via Holga, or a Lumix, or an old camera..and every now and then the ubiquitous iphone Her paintings are in oil, usually on linen, canvas, and sometimes paper. Her subjects are often things that we take for granted-clouds, roses, trees...traffic..but bringing them home and embracing life, with its complications, is one of her goals. Her work is sometimes meditative and sometimes captures the passing of time.
