Lisa Ott - Invidious

I make art, build imaginary worlds, and document what it actually looks like to believe in both. Whimsical, handmade, and very much in progress.

Happy August! I’m on vacation at my dad’s cottage and having so much fun making these small collages in a 3”x3” watercolour sketchbook.
I’ve come up with lots of great video ideas based on my summer art. Looking forward to getting back to the YouTube grind 😂 when summer comes to an end.
Hope you’re well. 💕

I'm back. Yikes! Has it really been 8 months?! I've posted a new video today — a studio reset day and a small peek at something I've been quietly working on the last few months. No music, no rush. Just come sit with me for a bit. 🌱 - Lisa https://youtu.be/t85VF0C5qzs

NEW VIDEO: For the days when nothing feels clear…

If you’re not creating right now — maybe you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

I just posted a new video about that strange space between things. When one project ends (or falls flat), and the next hasn’t begun yet. The part we often rush through or try to escape.

But what if this in-between time isn’t empty?

What if this is where your next creative idea is quietly waiting?

Let me know in the comments if you’ve felt this too — like something is shifting, but you don’t know what yet.

🌱 NEW VIDEO: Stuck in a Life You Built? Try This.

I’m not exactly brave.
But I am… done waiting for things to change on their own.

In this video, I talk about how I’m gently rebuilding my life — not by doing anything radical or fearless, but by doing small, practical, hopeful things that remind me I’m still in charge of my story.

Like mowing the lawn.
Using power tools (akwardly).
Cutting back on screen time.
And remembering what used to make me feel me.

If you’re craving a reset, but you don’t want to burn everything down — this one’s for you.

📌 NEW VIDEO!
I finally opened up the glue test experiment I started over a year ago! I tested 11 different glues on watercolor paper to see which one would hold up best for paper art and collage… and the results were not what I expected.

🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/p_bLmz4DzAw
✨ Let me know in the comments—what’s your go-to glue for collage or paper art?

Hi friends! I have a special video being published this SATURDAY at 6am EST. I am welcoming an amazingly talented artist (who also happens to be my lovely daughter) onto the channel to show us how to do some collage fanart of Lady Gaga as "Harley Quinn" from the upcoming movie Joker 2. Hope you are able to watch.
Take care!
Lisa ❤
