Lisa Hill was born in Ontario, Canada, and moved with her family to San Diego at the age of six. Hill’s early curiosity and observations of the world around her led to a lifelong career in painting. Lisa Hill received her degrees in Fine Art and Secondary Art Education from the University of California, Irvine in 1972, and it was there that she was introduced to the world of conceptual art. UC Irvine was the center of creativity and experimentation in the 70′s, where actively working artists taught art classes. Hill studied under Peter Alexander, John Paul Jones, Craig Kaufman, Moira Roth and Barbara Rose, and several other renowned contemporary artists.

Hill’s personal journey led her to painting representational and commercial art for over thirty years. Today, having come full circle, she is now applying her skills conceptually as seen in a recent surrealistic series. Her friend and mentor, contemporary artist Lauren Carrera, helped her push the limits with new abstract ideas.

Hill mostly uses acrylics because of the flexibility of this medium, often using mixed media such as oils, pastels, ink and watercolor along with acrylics. Using successive layers of paint, she is able to achieve the complexity integral to her paintings.

Hill has exhibited in several solo and group exhibitions and has completed a number of public murals in San Diego. She has sold hundreds of paintings over the years, to art collectors in the United States and abroad.
