BIOGRAPHY Since earning a Master's Degree in landscape architecture in 1985, Lisa Marder has combined the practice of landscape design with painting and teaching. Over the years she has taught a variety of courses at the South Shore Art Center in Cohasset, MA, where she currently teaches acrylic painting. She also teaches art and photography at Notre Dame Academy. Her work is very much influenced by the beauty of the New England landscape and can be found in many private and corporate collections.
