Lisa Ferguson Portfolio
"Lisa’s style is unique, with a degree of complexity, visual depth, and a strength of composition, that we believe sets her apart from other emerging New Zealand artists working in this style.”
Stephen Clegg, Director - ARTISTICA FINE ARTS
Lisa was born in New Zealand, travels extensively, has lived in Australia, London and is now based in the exciting city of New York. Her work has been exhibited and sold across the world to both private and corporate buyers in New Zealand, Australia, London, Dubai and now America.
Lisa’s large contemporary paintings create vivacious landscapes of poured, scraped and brushed sinuous line and form that are compelling. Her energetic use of richly layered color, defined by veins of curvaceous lines create deeply arresting and absorbing paintings. More than just visually stunning, her complex compositions provide an experience as viewers are drawn into studying the detail and paint effects.
Painted in an abstract expressionist style "Lisa's work displays incredible movement and energy, reminiscent of the style of Jackson Pollock...standing before her works, you feel invigorated, energized and inspired"...comment from 'What's on in London' guide.
Her work has been featured in numerous publications and a London article summed up her work brilliantly: "Large, energetic canvasses demand your attention and vibrant bursts of color seem to leap off the walls - NZ artist Lisa Ferguson’s work is designed to captivate." She was also filmed in 2006 for the top rating current affairs show "Campbell Live" in New Zealand.
Although Lisa gives each work a title she encourages you to interpret the art from your unique perspective. Through this many interesting stories and images emerge making her works fascinating talking pieces for home or office environments.
