ARTWORK:
Lisa McAfee lives in Salt Lake City and is originally from California. She uses painting, printmaking and mixed media to depict expansive landscapes, objects, and animals integrated with personal symbolism. Her work often explores a variety of media and processes including oil, watercolor, drawing, printmaking, monotype, and collage. This multifaceted approach is one she strives to bring to the high school classroom where young artists are encouraged to explore and investigate a direction they may have never gone before.
