Lisa Karin Reisman has been chosen as a featured artist for an exhibition organized by the Roxborough Development Corporation.  The Roxborough Development Corporation is celebrating the art of Lisa Karin 

 Reisman by showcasing works by the artist that reflect her love of Philadelphia's history and beauty.   The richness of Philadelphia's history, its architecture and the beauty of its natural enviornment have inspired Reisman's painting career for over thirty years. Reisman has been extensively recognized for her skilled works on canvas and has received numerous commissions by and from Philadelphia city officials as a public works artist and for her scaled works as muralist.  (Philadelphia Carpenter Union and Mayor Nutter)  Her inspired images of well known architectural settings reflect her rhythmic visions that allow the viewer to transcend time.  This capacity to transcend time is a hallmark of Reisman's works which distinguishes her from others in her field.  Each work creates a bridge to an honored past as it equally celebrates the cultural and natural beauty of Philadelphia's now present.


THE EXHIBIT CONTINUES THROUGH Jan 18, 2013

Water's Edge


This recently commissioned painting, Water's Edge was created in pastels . Pastel painting has served as a preferred method to me both in the past and now, transfering a tactileness to my landscapes with them and the brush alike. I'm glad to now return to the sensibility of this medium after a curved lapse from it and from the fluid aspect of paint itself. The landscape provides a theme of elements with the architecture structures I choose. I have choosen this view, among others that I'm working on, to bring together the elements of the man-made and the raw. This is commissioned by the Philadelphia Carpenter's Union.
I now continue to do the designing of neo-deco design motifs in unison with wooden designs, structures and or environments. As they come to me, I'm excited by the flow of these design configurations that emerge.
I teach lower and upper school age children. I have been enjoying sharing African art themes 
with them .  Below  " Fleur Di lis Corked".
