Lisa starts with a blank canvas, then draws directly on the canvas with thinned down paint and a brush. She then develops the drawing into an underpainting, which shows the light and shadow areas of the subject. Next, she adds color, using professional grade oil paints. As she develops the painting, Lisa continually makes adjustments to ensure she is getting the best likeness and making the portrait lifelike and realistic. The finished painting is then allowed to dry and then is varnished with Gamvar, a quick drying varnish for oil paint.
