Lisa Caren
ABOUT ME
Emerging artist Lisa Caren was raised in Woodstock, NY where she had the luxury of being surrounded by artists and creative free thinking people which now has profound impact on her process. Living for over a decade in the South of France, being inspired by the endless natural beauty and rich culture pushed her further into returning to Photography as her creative process. She now lives in Oxnard, CA, sandwiched between a marina full of "sticks" and the Pacific Ocean. She explains that when she sees her future pieces, her subjects , either land or sea , that she sees "roughed in blocks of color", what she describes as seeing through what might be in the moment a “Rothko” lens and in the edit she might work through a “Wolf Khan” filter or as of late, let nature take its course. She likes to say that she's obsessed by boats, the water they float on and the reflections that dance around them. She lovingly describes the agriculture that surrounds her as masterpieces waiting to be captured...
