Lisa Riehl

​Riehl is a West Coast landscape artist living in Victoria, BC. She paints bold and impressionistic scenes of the beauty of Vancouver Island that surrounds her: ocean and beaches, forests and trees. Many of her paintings are inspired by her favourite destination - Tofino, BC. Lisa’s passions of camping, surfing and beachcombing provide the inspiration for her many coastal paintings. She never goes anywhere without her trusty camera (usually her phone) and takes hundreds of photos while out in nature (way too many, really … her phone is jam-packed with images). She will never run out of inspiration for her paintings!

Lisa is a passionate artist and creative mentor who believes in the joy of making art at any stage of life. With a love for rich textures and expressive colour, she paints primarily in oils and acrylics, capturing the beauty of landscapes, light, and movement. She also finds inspiration in the immediacy of watercolour sketchbooking, using it as a way to explore ideas, document everyday moments, and keep creativity flowing.
Recently, Lisa has discovered the playful and unpredictable world of monoprinting, adding another layer of experimentation and spontaneity to her creative practice. She thrives on artistic exploration, embracing the process over perfection and encouraging others to do the same. Through her teaching, she empowers people to reconnect with their creative selves, reminding them that “It’s Never Too Late to Create”!
