Rusty Boat Studio
Mixed Media Collage Art
by
Lisa Graff
Artwork that finds beauty in weathered things
Colorful artwork inspired by the sea, rust, and everyday life along the waterfront in the Pacific Northwest.
Hi, I’m Lisa,
the artist behind Rusty Boat Studio
established 2013
I create mixed media collage artwork inspired by the sea, rusty boats, and the beauty of things that have lived a little.
My process is hands-on and layered—paint, photos, and found papers all come together, often with a few surprises along the way. Many of my pieces, like my Pacific Northwest scenes, reflect my love of color, the sea, and the character that comes from the weathered beauty that surround us.
I hope my art makes someone smile or see something familiar in a new way.
