q)Let’s start with the basics; what’s your full name, where do you live, and how old are you?

a)Lisa Marie Godfrey, 25 years old. Born and currently living in Houston, Texas.
                                                     
q) Do you have any formal training?

a)Yes, I just finished up a "certificate of achievement" in works on paper at the Glassell School of Art. Whatever that all means.

a)One house my family lived in for a couple of years has influenced me very much. It was on 2 acres of land so I would just run around, dig holes, climb trees, sneak away into the woods and all of that. It’s where I learned to use my imagination the most. I’d find dead animals, search for dinosaur bones, play and fight with my siblings.  Also, there was a lady who lived on the same property as us who was a gypsy of sorts. I was in awe of her and all of her quirky belongings. Back then, everything seemed so mysterious and exciting. That place has a special place in my bones.

a)My dreams influence them a lot for sure, but I tend to just pick up paper, a brush and go. I mess up a lot, throw a lot of stuff away… but there are a few that end up as keepers.

a)Well, my "characters" are usually banshees, ghosts and other phantom-like creatures. Sometimes they are me, other times they are people I’ve known who have passed… and some, I don’t know at all… new friends that I get to know over time.
My landscapes and geysers bring me hope, and that’s really the only reason why I paint them. I sort of drift from one thing to the next, whatever is bringin’ me maximum hope at the time.

q)What other mediums would you like to explore in your image making?
