Lisa Stinson earned her MFA in Ceramics from Rhode Island School of Design, a BFA in Ceramics from New York College of Ceramics at Alfred University and a BA in Psychology from Wells College. As an artist and educator, she has exhibited her work nationally,      presented at multiple conferences and conducted numerous workshops in both ceramic practices and kiln building techniques and design.
​
Her current studio work investigates her interests in mark making, as it relates to surface, pattern and drawing. Her ideas address both utility and non-functional works. With a continued commitment to materials research, Lisa has utilized this knowledge to expand      her making vocabulary, firing methods and the rhythms of abstraction.

Stinson received the 2017 College of Fine and Applied Art Teaching Award of Excellence, has lead a Study Abroad Program to Spain in 2017, 2018 and 2020.  She most recently was an artist in resident at the Cite International de Arts in Paris 2019.
