ABOUT THE ARTIST
Lisa Hershman is the founding artist of Lisa Hershman's Pet Portraits. As a Fine & Applied Art graduate of the University of Illinois in Champaign/Urbana, in Graphic Design, she has worked as an illustrator and artist for over 17 years. Lisa's paintings, which started out as gifts for friends, have launched into a career. She has been delighting pet owners with her custom paintings and pet art, but animals have been incorporated in her art since she began drawing and painting as a young girl.
Lisa's late dog, Powder, was rescued from Venice Beach, California, from Arial Pet Rescue group. Powder was a mix of Labrador, Terrier and White Shepard, but insisted she was a cat. She perched herself up on the windowsill cushions and watched the neighborhood action when she wasn't busy romping around the yard, she was cleaning her pure white coat and avoiding sprinklers and any type of water. Powder is very much missed, but her portrait hangs as a reminder of all the happy memories.
Lisa's work has exhibited in: Ryan's Art For the Soul in Laguna Beach, Pet Project Foundation's Festival of Whales Tails & Ales Street Fair, Laguna Nursery, Doheny Surf & Sand Art Festival, Dizz's As Is Laguna Beach Art Walk, Bistango/Studio Gallery, Marbella Country Club's Annual Holiday Boutique, Klara Macciotta Store, Bella Bazaar, Neighborhood Cup, Mission Viejo Chalk Festival, Parks Salon Fundraiser, 2nd Saturday Art Exhibition - San Juan Capistrano, and the O.C. Artist Juried Exhibition Newport Beach Arts Commission Group Show, Wag A Thon in Dana Point Harbor, Dana Point Winter Festival, Cinco de Mayo Dressage Day at Nellie Gail's Equestrian Center, Laguna Drug Wellness & Pet Day, and Dana Point ArtFest.

“The best part of having a business like this is doing what I love. My passion is painting animals. I get to make people happy too — always a plus.” — Lisa Hershman
