Lisa Brestel

Born in 1984 I was raised in the burgeoning geek culture. I grew up watching Star Trek over dinner, reading Dragonlance books, playing Atari and Nintendo, and attending every Renaissance Faire I could find. In high school I was introduced to Anime, Dungeons and Dragons, and Cosplay. For my graduation gift I got to build my own PC. I have spent too many years on World of Warcraft and have rejoiced with every new LotR, Marvel, and Star Wars movie that released.

​

My art career began in kindergarten (drawing My Little Ponies, of course) and these pastimes inspired wild and creative fantasy pieces through the years. In college I took every art class available and graduated with a degree in Multimedia and Design. Despite my art winning several awards locally, it was challenging to push my hobby into being a career. For my day job I work at Joann Fabric and Crafts in the Custom Framing department and I enjoy working with beautiful art of all styles and archivally preserving them. I take framing standards into consideration when I create my art so I can bring you the best quality work that you can enjoy for years to come.

​

Art and geek culture will forever be a passion of mine, and I want to share and celebrate it with you!
