Lisa left behind a remarkable legacy of art, music, writings, handmade clothing, recipes and more. She was a prolific, hyper-creative artist producing hundreds of sculptures (lovingly referred to as "scrapture"; a combination of sculpture, scraps, and rapture) ranging in size from more than five feet tall to less that two inches. And, if you were to tour her home, you would see that there was nothing that did not become a work of art; even the placement of fruits and vegetables on the kitchen counter was done in a way that highlighted their beauty.
During her lifetime, Lisa was too humble to brazenly sell her works. Nevertheless, more than 200 sculptures were sold, including four bronzes of her captivating sculpture "The Circle." She also won top awards at the prestigious 1992 Sedona Sculpture Walk, and had her works displayed in the entire window of the Agnesiah Gallery in Sedona, Arizona.
We are seeking galleries who are interested in showing and offering Lisa's art for sale. Her works, including a limited edition of "The Circle," are also being made available to private collectors.

In 1994, with the help of world-renowned Sculptor, John M. Soderberg, Ph.D., Lisa Bacon's The Circle was first presented to the public for sale as a bronze. People were immediately captivated by the beauty of the beauty of the lovers' eternal embrace. The genuine intimacy and the purity of the love they conveyed truly touched people's hearts. Five of these bronze pieces quickly sold. Meanwhile, Lisa returned to creating art, more focused upon the creative process than she was on marketing her pieces, and the mold was stored away in the garage until 2014. The original clay sculpture (shown below) was created in 1966, and remains in the home of Ron Bacon.
