ARTISANS

Lisa Bradshaw was born in Seattle, Washington in the summer of 1969. Her mother was an artist and her father was an engineer. Lisa grew up drawing all the time. In fact, she declared art as her major when she began college. However, Lisa quickly discovered that she did not want art to be a job and so became a math major and got her teaching credential. During this time, Lisa got married and had 3 sons. Life was busy! She spent 30 years teaching advanced math and science to 8th graders in Etiwanda. During this time art took a back seat. However, in 2020, when she and her husband Scott became grandparents to an adorable little girl named Charlie Lisa got the bug again and painted lots of portraits of her little muse. Finally, in 2024, Lisa was able to retire from teaching and has thrown herself into painting full time, finding new inspiration from her stunning mountain home of Lake Arrowhead.
