Ethereal Landscape Oil Paintings.
Lissa Friedman’s ethereal landscape oil paintings of the Blue Ridge Mountains are born from both classical training and profound inner exploration. Now based in Asheville, her work captures more than the physical beauty of Western North Carolina’s misty peaks - it reveals their emotional and spiritual resonance. Using palette knife techniques, flowing color, and increasingly abstract forms, Lissa translates the shifting light, layered ridgelines, and atmospheric haze of the Blue Ridge into paintings that feel alive and dimensional. Each piece emerges intuitively, created from a space of deep listening and discovery, allowing viewers to experience the mountains not just as scenery, but as energy, memory, and presence.
Expressions of Love.
I create pet paintings that capture the love and spirit of your dogs and cats. Each portrait brings your furry friend to life on canvas, combining classical technique with heartfelt connection.
