This is a recording of our Live Demo Falling for Fall with Lisa Spangler!
In this demo, Lisa demonstrated how to paint leaves and acorns just in time for the fall season. She shared color-mixing techniques and tips for quickly painting fall foliage and nature while on your autumn hikes and adventures!
Lisa started working with watercolor a few years ago while recovering from 6 surgeries for a torn ACL. During rehab, she would walk to a pond in her neighborhood, using her Art Toolkit Pocket Palette to do a little sketch as a reward and let her leg recover before making the trek back home. Now, she sketches while hiking and backpacking. Lisa is on a mission to share the joy of sketching outdoors with everyone she meets! You may have spotted her artwork for the papercraft industry at Target, JoAnn Fabrics, and Michaels.
In addition to sharing her art online, Lisa works for a nonprofit land trust dedicated to preserving prairies in her home state of Texas.
Thank you for joining us!
