Lisa Burns

Artist In-Residence, Acrylic and Watercolor

Gallery 4 is excited to announce that Lisa Burns is one of our artists-in-residence in the first year of our program. She will display her artwork in the main gallery during the next 3 months, October through December 2021. Please stop by and see Lisa and 35 other artist's work on display and for purchase at 115 Roberts St. N. in the heart of Downtown Fargo.

Thank you to The Arts Partnership for helping to make this possible and to supporting local artists.


Lisa Burns is a self-taught acrylic and watercolor artist who resides near Downer Minnesota on 12 acres of land adjacent to her family home.  Lisa draws her inspiration from her country surroundings, love of animals, beekeeping and her Minnesota roots.

Since childhood, Lisa has been drawing and painting from life and her experiences growing up on a farm.  As a high school student, her interest in art was nourished by the exceptional art educators in the Barnesville school system. She graduated from Minnesota State University Moorhead with a BSA in Accounting.  During her education at MSUM, Lisa pursued a minor in art and completed courses in art history, drawing, and ceramics.  She has also participated in several watercolor workshops sponsored by Red River Watercolor Society (RRWS) and local art educators.

After her college education was completed, she began working for the United States Postal Service.  In 2021 she retired after 25 years and is now pursuing an art career.  During her years working for the Post Office and raising a family, she continued to engage in a variety of learning experiences including cross stitch, quilting, stain glass and beekeeping.  Lisa is currently a Fargo Moorhead Visual Artists (FMVA) member, Red River Watercolor Society (RRWS) President and Red River Valley Beekeeper (RRVB) President.
