COVER ART: This edition of She Shines displays the informal pastel portrait of Grandma. An early style for Lisa Pastille, she was classically trained earning her bachelor of arts degree in art studio. She studied as an oil painter.

Now she creates unique home portraits seamlessly integrating the mediums of painting, drawing, and photography. This is her self-developed technique. To learn more about Portraits by Pastille, call 401-232-9058 or visit http://www.portraitsbypastille.com

classic meets contemporary with Lisa Pastille's interpretive photo painting

Lisa Pastille tries to capture the true essence of a home much like other artists capture the spirit of a human figure. This utilizes her skills as an illustrator, muralist, and digital artist. Each line is hand drawn. Each project takes about 20 hours to complete.

Interpretive Photo Painting is a technique that Pastille created in 2005. It blends her fine art background with enhanced photography. She creates house portraits.

Her work is shown monthly in libraries and establishments throughout Rhode Island and the surrounding community. In January, Pastille will exhibit at the Cranston Public Library.
