Greyt Big Talk w/ Lisa Quine

Lisa Quine is a Cleveland muralist, illustrator and graphic designer whose bold, colorful work turns blank walls into landmarks. Through her studio she designs murals, illustrations, branding and print work for businesses and organizations, and she has painted more than 130 murals in ten states and two countries, including a single wall of 2,000 square feet.

She studied graphic design at the University of Dayton, earning a BFA, and spent five years in advertising before leaving her art director job to build a business around hand lettering. That practice grew into murals, coloring books, magazine covers, gallery shows and a deck of cards for SuperTrue. Her clients have included Destination Cleveland, the Cleveland Guardians and Aveda, and she has painted at the Canton Mural Fest.

In 2018 the City of Cleveland chose her to represent it in Rouen, France, where she worked with two French artists on a mural marking ten years as sister cities. Cleveland Magazine named her one of its Most Interesting People in 2020, Cleveland Scene named her Best Artist in Cleveland in 2024, and the Cleveland Cavaliers gave her a JIF Diff Maker Award in 2025.
