About The Artist Lisa Bystrak: It All Started With Drawing, Paper Piecing And Design At A Young Age. A Few Art Classes As A Young Adlt And Many Years Of Inspirng Moments Lead Me To This...A Couple Of Years Ago I Took Up The Craft Of Scrapbooking As A Way To Pay Tribute To My Children And Show Some Respect To Numerous Photos In A Showbox. Since Then Creating Has Consumed Me. I Moved To Framed Pages, Farmhouse Windows, Collage, Canvas Creations, A Line Of Paper Mache Characters, And Now 'Owego Whimsy's'!
My Inspirations Coe From Anything Old, Chipped, Cracked, Worn, Dusty, Used, Found, Buried, Loved And Aged. Somedays You May Find Me Drawn To Modern, Hip, Elegant, Fresh, New Crisp And Clean. I Love To Mingle The Old With The New And See What New Life It Becomes. What Kind Of Memories Of Yesterday We Can Bring Into Our Lives Today.
