Lisbeth Cort

Living in the colorful City of Santa Fe supplies endless inspiration for Lisbeth Cort’s paintings at Ahymo River Gallery.  The geometric landscape, high desert flora and centuries-old adobe buildings all provide rich subject matter for her colorful art.  

After a 35-year career in historic preservation and arts nonprofits across the country, Lisbeth now paints full-time in her studio just minutes from the historic Santa Fe Plaza.  She began her art journey in 2010 in the Pacific Northwest, sketching on location around her island home and during her travels.  Through ongoing study, she developed her craft, moving first to fine art watercolor painting and expanding to use acrylics and pastels in joyful palettes.  Lisbeth’s award-winning work is internationally collected on 3 continents with a number of her paintings featured in juried exhibitions, solo shows and galleries in New Mexico and Washington State.
