Born in Amos, Abitibi, Lise attended L’INSTITUT DES ARTS APPLIQUÉS in Montreal. She then spent some time in Alberta, continuing studies in art and photography at the University of Edmonton.

A long journey, with a thousand jobs along the way, allowed her to explore different artistic media, such as theatre set design, industrial design, journalistic graphics and layout, journalistic photography, and the management of an art and craft gallery.

In 1995, the exploration of colour took centre stage in the form of watercolour painting. Lise strives to break away from her graphic design background by exploring the fluidity and emotions in this medium, and her efforts are earning her accolades.

Recently, acrylic inks have captured her interest, resulting in stunning creations both figurative and non-figurative.

On her palette, the colours are very intense, and they vary according to the energy needed to give light to the work. Her long-time passion is for trees, those giant witnesses of our presence on this earth, and for the forest, sleeping and waking to the sound of the light. The forest, breathing lightly and causing delight.
