Lisa Miriam Taylor is an Oxfordshire artist who combines fine drawing and other
media to create highly textured pieces. She originally trained as a teacher,
studying ceramics as her main subject. She began quiltmaking in the early
1980s and founded the still active Ridgeway Quilters. She first exhibited at the
Vale and Downland Museum with them, and was placed third in a national championship
in 1986. It was through quilting that her passion for texture really developed.
Inspired by the landscapes of America and of the Berkshire downs in particular,
she now brings together the small details and the large panoramas of the natural
world. This mix offers opportunities for experiment with scale, sometimes with
surprising results.
Lisa is also a development worker and a counsellor, and her
art gives her a balanced perspective in a life of close involvement with people.
She is now training to be a Gestalt psychotherapist, and has a practice in Wantage
and at her home.
