The Painterly Life Podcast: Where Everyday Creativity Inspires Extraordinary Journeys

I’ve always been a self-propelled creative. But life happened, and I got stuck!

During my brown-out phase, I turned to other creatives for inspiration, and boy, did they lift me out of the muck!

Now, I’m giving back.

Lisa Zylstra

Lisa Zylstra grew up along the Southern California coast, where she cultivated a deep appreciation for the ocean and coastal foothills. Her passion for hiking and backpacking in the Sierra Nevada eventually inspired Lisa and her husband to relocate to the Sierra foothills near Yosemite National Park in 2020.

Lisa’s artistic journey began early, earning her awards and scholarships during high school, including a life-drawing scholarship to Otis Parsons College of Art and Design in Los Angeles and a prestigious first-place award among all senior artists in the Los Angeles Unified School District. She later earned a BFA in Illustration from CSU Long Beach. Her education and training led to opportunities to create artwork for corporations and private collectors.

Today, Lisa’s passion lies in painting California’s diverse landscapes in oils. Her work has garnered numerous awards and paintings are featured in several galleries.
