Born and raised in El Paso, Texas, Lisa Wood has always been interested in the arts and the way they can impact life. Her interest led her to complete an education in Interior Design from the University of North Texas.  Once she became a mother, she began experimenting with interior design of a different sort.  Lisa has turned an artistic leaning into a full-time exploration of creation with ArtInUtero, specializing in portraits of babies while they are in the womb.

Lisa’s is constantly developing her signature style of bringing a whole new dynamic and joyous view of pregnancy by creating unique portraits that provide a deeply emotional and visual impact.

ArtInUtero begins with a black and white sonogram or a still shot from a videotape.  Lisa then transforms that miracle of technology into a colorful, textured artwork on canvas and watercolor paper.  She creates a miracle of a different sort, a portrait of this unique child, before the baby even draws a first breath.

Her works are now hanging in art galleries, businesses, homes, and doctor's offices around the country. The ArtInUtero venture started as a way to give a unique gift to friends and family members who were expecting children.

One Texas gallery owner who showed five of Lisa's works commented,
 "… Only one looks like a baby.  You realize they are human forms, but you have to study them."

At the heart of Lisa's success is her deep and abiding love of children and life. Her portraits show the celebration of just that.

Lisa and her husband, George, are striving to produce a growing range of products which include books, calendars, greeting cards, stationery, photo albums, all based on her amazing artwork. 

Lisa and George now live in North Carolina with their three children.
