Lisa Firke

Lisa Firke writes and creates art in the funky modern house in Princeton where she grew up.Her father remade what originally was small gray ranch into a modernist marvel while she was still a child. He gave it gigantic windows, tipsy skylights and undulating walls.The family filled it up with all the necessities: animals and art supplies, books and typewriters, plus many now-iconic Midcentury objects that continue to influence Lisa’s aesthetic.

Lisa has always loved printed matter. Career-wise, this has variously meant founding and producing literary magazines; publishing her own essays, stories and illustrations; and selling fine art prints.Currently, Lisa is diving deep into analog processes like dip pen drawing, linocut carving and printing, and collaging with hand-painted papers. These original materials are then brought into Procreate and used to enhance the editorial, book cover, and poster art featured in her portfolio.

Lisa will be accepting commissions beginning in mid-January, 2026. Reach out to discuss your project.
