LISA IS A PAINTING PASTRY CHEF WHO WRITES

Self Portrait

or perhaps she is a writer who paints and chefs pastries.

Starting again in life is something Lisa does often. She makes art, because the act of making demands starting again…and again. Every making moment is an opportunity to practice staying open and to keep the Beginner’s Mind. She shares her art in hopes it may encourage people to linger a little longer on something they notice.

Lisa is self-taught through trial and error, and by seeking out great teachers. She has trained under Michelin-starred chefs in France, and co-founded Cha Bay, an online teahouse. Her writing has appeared in Universal Table/Wising Up Press. Her artwork has been in various group shows in NYC and beyond.

When she’s not starting anew, Lisa enjoys longboarding the streets of New York, and drinking oolong tea.
