Artist biography

Lisa Ledson is a self-taught abstract artist residing in Napa, California, who began her career in 2017 after going thru a major shift in her personal life. Her energy-filled abstract paintings draw inspiration from creative forms of self-expression, her own emotional experiences, and exploration of the spiritual world. Ledson grew up in the country in the small town of Kenwood, California. Between her mother’s strong creative influence and her Waldorf education the arts were a prominent part of her upbringing. She attributes her artistic inclination to her exposure of both the visual and performing arts at a very early age. Trained extensively in ballet, Ledson’s sense of movement is an intrinsic part of her practice.

For her, painting is a form of active meditation and has been a catalyst for her personal transformation. Her artistic practice is built on the exploration of the metaphysical and spiritual world wherein she sees herself more as a conduit for whatever energy wants to come thru and onto her canvas. She stands in the belief that whatever energy coming through her art is meant to stir and elevate the lives of people inspired by her work.


Artist Statement:

My artistic process involves meditation designed to alchemize emotion and energy to allow my art to come thru me and into physical form. My purpose in creating this work is to evoke an emotional response thru the energy in my art to connect the viewer with their own heart space. And in doing so, allow them to carry forward that energy of healing and transformation into their lives and therefore the world.

“Most importantly

Follow the breadcrumbs

To find your ‘medium’

The way to heal yourself

And therefore the world.”
