are you listening? • Are you focused on what’s around you today? ⛅️ Have you noticed the birds chirping louder and with excitement for spring? 🌸 Did you notice your body getting a burst of energy in the sunshine? ☀️ Do you hear that invitation for adventure? 🌲 Drop the phone and answer those calls of joy, of being present, of enjoying the life before your eyes ♥️ I’ve been really mindful of not being on my phone for too long lately. It’s easy to fall back into it, I’m doing my best not to. Instagram made me feel this urgency to post all the time to stay current, to entertain, to get commissions, but I’ve found by being on it significantly less, that things haven’t changed for the worse- so I no longer feel chained to posting daily. It took a while but I got there. Thanks for being here you guys♥️ I have some new ideas I’m percolating in my head and excited to get onto! This here is a in progress portrait of two cute chihuahuas who always seem to stack one on top of the other ♥️ #BisaLisa #mindfulness #spring #birdschirping #petportrait #dogportrait #dogs #chihuahua #chihuahuas (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqWYXYpvwoY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

happy lunar new year ! • A print from a floral moon I burned a while back. Fun fact: in China, the year 2023 is the year of the rabbit. The year of the rabbit last came up in 2011. In Vietnam, 2023 is the year of the cat. #BisaLisa #lunarnewyear #lunar #newyear #chinesenewyear #vietnamesenewyear (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnu_2UlvKZB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

riding into adventures in style • Alright, so this one was super cute to come up with and create! We’ve got a friend whose nickname is Raptor, rap dog, uncle raptor… and he is in love with his wonderful lady who also happens to love wearing fun wigs… and playing cribbage. Given that information, @yellowtailwood and I partnered up and created THIS. 🤗 Everything is better with a cute backstory! #BisaLisa (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnpTjUNJfUV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

the ponds • A thoughtful gift for her fiancé. The property holds so much peace, love and joy. It's an escape, a rest, a journey, an adventure. Enjoy the making of the piece in my previous reel. I've never visited the land but we worked together with photos and videos to piece it all together. Thank you for trusting me with such a special place. #BisaLisa #getaway #peaceful #quiet #adventure #cabin #cottage #chalet #rest #woodburning #pyrography #artstory #behindtheart #ponds #watersound #watersounds (at Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnSPOa3PoIn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

always choose more love • Here’s a photo as well, I know reels are not everyone’s attention span favourite. This piece was so special to me. Losing a best friend is extremely tough, but being so lucky to have that love in your life is a privilege. Choosing love is never a mistake, Ace may not be physically there anymore, but Hux is making sure mama is loved and protected while Ace supervises from above A special commissioned gift from one lovely human to another. #BisaLisa (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmxaIACPRXw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

the grain beneath, cribbage board • @yellowtailwood and myself got commissioned to create this unique geological cribbage board as a Christmas gift. We were so fortunate to have our friends trust us with this special piece, and we put all the love into it to show our appreciation. A sectional look at the layers beneath the mountains, with an adit to enter their world. The layers of rock grains are burned between the wood grains of this 3 foot long (0.9 m) catalpa piece, working with the grain direction to choreograph the shape of the landscape. Merry Christmas everyone!! Stay tuned for more revealed holiday commissions from 2022! #BisaLisa #cribbage #cribbageboard #cribbagechristmas #christmas #merrychristmas (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmmS73ApIAz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

winter market • My last market of 2022. That’s a wrap for the holiday season. Unfortunately it was very empty, no sales were made, and I spent a lot of my time prepping, packing and attending. It was sad to be there and experience it for all the people working hard to provide a beautiful shopping experience, paying market venue fees, most of them not breaking even, and feeling like time wasted over a weekend that could’ve been filled with much more. Nonetheless, I’ll keep creating as we all feel beaten down some days, and we ride the wave to come back out of it. Also, I’m so grateful to have @yellowtailwood by my side who helped me so much with it all. Kudos to all the partners out there with supporting the hustle! Aidan’s vases were a hit with anyone who visited my booth; everyone touched their smooth to perfection finishing. On another good note, I’m really excited to share with you some of my latest Christmas commissions soon. Been quietly creating them the last few weeks 🤫 🤶🏻 Two key portfolio items I’ve been waiting for to come into my lap were checked off! Stay tuned ♥️🎉 #BisaLisa #marketfail #market #xmasmarket #marketsetup #christmasgifts #christmasmarket (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmWzYVOJ2T-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

playing in the kelp forest • Mama and baby having a whale of a time in the kelp forest. This piece was inspired by a kayaking trip this summer in the Pacific Ocean. We kayaked through vast kelp forests and ooh’ed and aah’d and then were extremely lucky to see a mama and baby humpback whale on our water taxi back to shore. A photo by Chad & his drone trying to show you the keep because I didn’t document it, other than being forever stored in my brain. Loved creating this one. Thanks to @thepaintingcrow for reminding me exactly what I needed the background of the whales to be 🌱 Soon to be posted for sale, with prints coming in the future. I just need to hold onto it a little bit longer ♥️ #BisaLisa (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClFaIzoJII9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
