Lisa
Painter, Potter & Art teacher in Santa Barbara.
Teaching art is my life's purpose. Since I was a child, I always had this inclination towards art. I developed my love for Ceramics during my first semester of college and I started teaching clay techniques in private studios. I was an assistant to a ceramic artist. Working long hours alone in that large studio is where I found my love for the flow state. This opened my eyes to a new approach. I took this approach and taught it to my ceramic and fine art students for the next few years. After finishing my Philosophy degree, I moved to Santa Barbara in 2020. I taught at a local art studio, became an Art
Teacher at GUSD, and built my Atelier. My life's Ikigai is complete & I hope to sustain it for years to come...
Hi, I'm Lisa, the artist, teacher, and heart behind Golden Vista Studio. For over a decade, I've been helping people discover the joy of painting, whether it's their first time picking up a brush or they're refining their technique. From relaxed painting sessions in the park to in-depth courses exploring master painting methods, I create spaces where creativity feels accessible and exciting. My goal is simple, help you find your artistic voice and love the process along the way.

Vision
My vision is to teach children how to think like an artist. This means teaching them techniques in; using the medium, critical thinking through obstacles and developing their own approach.
Mission
My Mission is to bring joy and self-esteem through Art.
