"Las Damas de Blanco"
Las Damas de Blanco son mujeres que le reclaman a la última dictadura de América la libertad de sus esposos, padres, hijos, hermanos o sobrinos. Heroicas mujeres cubanas que con amor, dignidad y coraje están ganándole la calle a la cobardía, la vileza y el odio, al igual que lo hicieron antes otras mujeres bajo otras dictaduras. Porque, como escribió José Martí: ‘Las campañas de los pueblos sólo son débiles cuando en ellas no se alista el corazón de mujer; pero cuando la mujer se estremece y ayuda, cuando la mujer tímida y quieta en su natural, anima y aplaude, cuando la mujer culta y virtuosa unge la obra con la miel de su cariño, la obra es invencible’

"Elizabeth-The Mermaid Turtle"Acrylic
Elizabeth the Mermaid rides on the back of her friend the SurfSide Sea Turtle as an ambassador for the preservation of all underwater sea life. She is an advocate of both big and small sea creatures on our planet. She protects vital ocean habitats, helping sustain healthy ecosystems and our food supply. We can all do our part to create clean beaches for everyone to enjoy, cleaner water for fish and marine wildlife, and a healthier ocean for those whose lives depend on it. But it's going to take all of us coming together to make it happen.

"Sisterhood" 24'x36"
Oil on canvas
My Sister is my strength.
She hears the whispered prayers
That I cannot speak.
She helps me find my smile,
Freely giving hers away.
She catches my tears
In her gentle hands.
My sister is like no one else.
She's my most treasured friend--
Filling up the empty space,
Healing broken places.
She is my rock, my inspiration,
Though impossible to define,
In word, she is... my sister.

Lisa Lorden



"Lovers Whisper" 30" x 48" 
Oil on canvas
Oh! What heavenly was this eternal bliss,
As he held her within his strong arms,,
for her body could not denigh these charms.
Dreamy was the look in her eyes,
as more kisses sent her heart to the skies.


"Blessing Love" 24"x 30"
Oil on canvas
Everyone needs love for its impact and fulfillment
No love breeds desperation, disappointment and tears.
As love transforms how we think, act and respond
We validate our feelings by our fears.

My entire world has fallen apart.
How do I find hope in a brand new day,

I long for your touch and your warm embrace,
the look in your eyes, the smile on your face.
