Lisa Gates' Artwork
Lisa first discovered her love for art when her mother would take her to various art classes as a child. She was moved not necessarily by artwork itself, but by the creative freedom that it allowed her. Lisa had a penchant for not following the exact instructions given to her by the instructor. She preferred to go outside the box and do what she felt she should do; something she continues to take pride in today.
As an adult, Lisa’s love of art only grew. She spent some time with pottery and ceramics, where she sculpted and painted her way to several first-place ribbons in the various competitions she entered. Finally, in 1998, she found her place in the niche world of repainted collectables, which she has been creating and selling ever since. She has attended various conventions for these collectables, and even won the DMAA First Place Crystal Award for one of her creations in 2001. She worked consistently with these collectables until 2019, where she began to branch out, but never away. She began to work with resin in order to create new, unique pieces of art. She loves all mediums, but currently her favorite thing to create is resin geode paintings. Her love of crystals unites with her love of art in these beautiful, three-dimensional works of artistry that shine from any angle. Her future artistic endeavors will see her diving into oil paints, something that she has always wanted to try out with her brush.
Lisa now resides in the Dallas Fort-Worth Metroplex with her husband, three children, and three pets. She spends most of her days, and even late into the night, working on her creations. She says that her biggest critic (aside from herself) is her youngest daughter, who always has to approve a piece of art before it is truly finished.
“Art has become my hobby, my addiction, and my relaxation. I am very blessed to be able to be creative in this manner.”
