“Techknowledgy Scientist” by Colorado mixed media artist Lisa Eisenhardt

Technology has a way of getting in our heads. It has changed how a person's brain develops. I think it has outgrown us. I don't adore or abhor computers, social media, or technology in general. It is here and part of my life. I just don't want to end up having it run my life. I do not want chips in my head either – like the scientist in this mixed media piece. My motivation started with smart phone copper displays. This is a highly texturized piece with lots of layering using gels, mono prints I have made, and of course the tech chips and displays. I see something new every time I look at now.

"Sororal Sea" by Colorado Mixed Media Artist Lisa Eisenhardt

sororal
[suh-rawr-uh l, -rohr-] 
adjective1.of, relating to, or characteristic of a sister or sisters;sisterly

I have never been to the Texas coast but a friend used to live there and still visits often to be with her sisters. The three of them are a fun loving threesome and my inspiration comes from picturing them at the beach. This isn't a "peaceful" beach scene but a lively one that comes from my mind .

"Wyoming Pond" by Colorado Mixed Media Artist Lisa Eisenhardt

"Buena Vista Box" Mosaic Cigar Box by Colorado Mixed Media Artist Lisa Eisenhardt

A lot of great things come from Cuba besides cigars, like Buena Vista Social Club, which I listened to while mosaicking this old, very solid, walnut cigar box. It's a gleaming, beautiful blue and green mosaicked piece of very functional art. On the outside you'll see stained glass, agates, pebbles, glass cabochons, millefiori, turquoise, and handcrafted ceramic pieces. I will line it for you if you'd like.

"Go Ask Alice" by Colorado Mixed Media Artist Lisa Eisenhardt

To sleep is to dream for me, I always have dreams. I had a dream that I fell into this painting and the next day I put the rabbit in because the dream reminded me of Alice in Wonderland; so I named it Go Ask Alice. I used Golden gel mediums and metallic paints for this mixed media painting.

"Cog Rail Trail" mixed media mosaic by Colorado mixed media artist Lisa Eisenhardt

More Colorado! This winter I took my parents up the Cog Rail in Colorado Springs. The sights along the way were inspiring and I ended up creating this stained glass wall hanging - hand made frame with beetle kill pine, which has beautiful gray tones. Other tesserae used - sliced rock, amber pebbles, agate, black pebbles, turquoise, and petrified wood slices.
This is ready to hang with D hook on the back.

I love Colorado! There is always something in my art that is inspired by Colorado. This mixed mixed media mosaic guitar is mountains on the front, with the hope of spring on the back. I picked up a an old tag from the mines in Leadville and put it on the lower fret, other tesserae used - stained glass, agates, turquoise, silver moon, sliced rocks, fused glass, millefiori, vitreous tiles, ceramic with crackled glass, and love.
