Bio:

A lifelong designer, Lisa Ballard has worked professionally in the areas of graphic design and illustration for twenty years. Graduating from the College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning from the University of Cincinnati in 1987, Lisa began a career that gave her a foundation in the business of communication. Her sensitivity to illustrated typography, color, pattern, and line art combined with her design sense have resulted in original and successful brand and product development appearing on many of the products you use everyday.

Lisa’s newest venture has been in the realm of licensing where her images and patterns appear on product lines ranging from scrapbooking stickers to complete home product lines. Lisa’s products can be seen in: Target, WalMart, Michaels, Hobby Lobby, and many private gift shops.

Working out of the third floor attic of her custom-designed country farmhouse in Ohio, Lisa draws inspiration from her gardens and her two children.
