#Tuscarora celebrates the rich heritage and culture of the Tuscarora Nation, highlighting traditions, storytelling, crafts, and community. It fosters awareness, promotes indigenous voices, and honors ancestral connections through creative expression.
The painting may be "hidden" at first glance, especially to anyone seeing my work for the first time, even though it's in plain sight. I work hard to make paintings that are seemingly "invisible." I find this amusing because many artists do the opposite–they make their paintings stand out through bold color choices and energetic compositions.  In contrast, you'll often hear me say, "we need to dull this color wayyy down" to match the gentle tones of nature. For my own work, I've long since come to prefer the often understated colors of nature to more saturated, modern colors. In a way, I feel like my paintings would have their own personalities. I know they're just objects, but I treat them respectfully, as I would a person. I feel like they are shy and want to become one with nature, as though they belong there and its their calling. So, it's my job, if not my duty, to ensure they achieve that.  Many in my online community, including me, have a sense of curiosity in seeing what we call "walk behinds," like in this video. When I walk behind, the painting momentarily appears. I keep the walk behinds short because the paintings almost seem to have a "do not disturb" vibe; I want to give them space after to settle back in and disappear again. Although they're just paintings, this connection I have with them is what makes them turn out well. I pay attention closely to them and seem to have an intuition for what they need, whether it's more blue, more contrast, or increased definition. I fit in as many details as I can before my lighting changes.  🖼 To learn more about the original artwork from this illusion or acquire it for your collection, visit my online gallery.  Thank you for your encouragement and support. Your participation brings so much meaning to this process! Take care.  💗 Lisa Cornwell #pleinairillusion #colormatchqueen #fineartist #Tuscarora #lakeontario #oilpainting #artillusion #wilsonny #greatlakes #illusionpainting #colormatched #onlineartgallery #naturelovers #wnyart #lisacornwell #lisacornwellart

BTS: Time to take down the illusion! Taking down the illusion is bittersweet, but we'll never get to the next illusion if we stay here.  That being said, it's important to me that these paintings continue to live on after the match. I varnish them with care, and they're available framed. It's been such a rewarding experience to send the originals to fine art collectors, knowing the artwork will be displayed and its story will continue. It means a lot to me that a piece of Western New York can find a home in collections around the world. I never worry when it's time to send a painting to its new home. I know from the warm letters I get from my clients and all the heartfelt encouragement on social media that others care about these paintings just as much as me. I always have peace and confidence that the paintings are going to good homes.  Thank you for enjoying this behind the scenes snippet with me. Grateful for your support! Please feel free to leave me feedback in the comments on what you'd like to see more of, especially for bts content.  🖼 Visit my online gallery to browse and collect original illusions, including this Lake Ontario illusion at Tuscarora Beach. They're archivally framed and come with a certificate of authenticity.

At first, it may look like something is wrong with the photo–maybe a glitch or a photo edit. But really, I'm just "walking through" my illusion painting of Lake Ontario. No digital tricks were used in this illusion. It's a painting that closely mirrors reality.  I paint outdoors because it lets me study the colors in their purest form, not distorted by camera or screens. Studying the colors of nature in the wild fosters growth and learning for me as an artist. It also allows you and I to bond through the experience in a special way.  Together, we come to appreciate often overlooked aspects of the Western New York landscape through replicating them in these paintings. It's my wish to spur interest in nature and conservation through these paintings, and I believe you and I can work together to create a more sustainable future.  🖼 To bring the soothing colors of Lake Ontario into your home, visit my online gallery. The piece is archivally framed and comes with a certificate of authenticity, plus information on Lake Ontario’s natural history.  Thank you for being an important part of this journey. Your support means everything.
