Lisa Pownall

Lisa’s work concerns itself with environmental issues and often focuses on endangered birds. She is inspired by scientific Botanical illustration and Ornithology, the study of birds. Birds are colourful, and their different from each other. I like colours, I always picked the colourful birds and the flowers are the same, they are colourful as well.

I have right sided hemiplegia which means I can only use my left hand to do things. I paint, I do pottery, I do everything with only my left hand. I have a science degree and I see things differently, scientifically, I see the systems in nature.
