Lisa McShane lives in Bow, Washington. This is one in a series of interviews with our customers to see how they are adapting to the COVID-19 world. She says, "I paint landscapes to capture light and to convey a powerful record of the world I see. These lands are at my core. In northwest Washington I capture the crystal clear light, early dawn, cold northern lakes, fog and long, dark shadows of winter. In eastern Washington I convey the stark beauty of this exposed, eroded land using a saturated, luminous light so that I can chase and give form to my memories."
