Lisa Bebi – Altered Images Using the Paint-Over Technique (Recording) – Free!

Date recorded: Friday, April 8, 2022
Level: All
Medium: Mixed media with acrylic

Join mixed media artist Lisa Bebi for this exciting 1-1/2-hour mixed media exploration of the “Paint-Over Technique.”  Bebi developed this technique, which uses family photos and found images, as a base for painting and altering photocopies of photos by painting, staining and combining them with collage. The applications and combinations are endless: collage, drawing, pastel, painting, storytelling, composition, assemblage, journaling, wax techniques and more. The results also stand up on their own as finished paintings.

San Diego artist Lisa Bebi is known for her sensitive yet simple depictions of vintage figures that often combine paint with black and white imagery. She spotlights her subjects within two-dimensional backgrounds to emphasize subtleties of sober character and to reveal interesting narratives. 

Since 2006, Bebi’s work and writings have been featured in Somerset Studio magazine, as well as numerous other publications and articles. Her award-winning work is shown in group and solo gallery exhibitions, both locally and nationally. www.lisabebi.com
