About Me

My photo
LISA JOHNSON FINCH
I am an artist living on the NC Outer Banks(OBX). I hold degrees in both Commercial Art and Fine Arts. I am a painter, photographer, and graphic designer. I am inspired by the natural beauty I see on these barrier islands every day, and try to capture that feeling of tranquility on canvas. As much as I appreciate OBX scenery, my favorite subject matter is portraiture--- particularly babies and children. I enjoy depicting pregnancy and breastfeeding. I love capturing that unique mother/child bond. I have a few pieces displayed in local businesses and galleries. However, I can offer a substantial savings when I am able to cut out the middleman, so to speak, by selling and shipping directly. I also accept work by commission. Send me photos of your kids, pets, or house, and I can create a personal painting just for you or a loved one! How about a fantasy piece? Turn the little girl in your life into a mermaid; your young man into a little surfer dude! Samples of my work are online and you may contact me through Facebook or my email address with any questions. obxlisafinch@embarqmail.com
