Curious, fearless and full of feeling. This is Lisa Marie Simpson seen through the artist Ava Reid's eyes.
 
This original acrylic on canvas painting by Macclesfield artist Ava Reid captures the Simpsons' big hearted younger sister in all her offbeat glory. Spiky golden hair dotted with the painters flecks of yellow, wide expressive eyes, and her dress alive with bold red shapes set against a powerful backdrop of pinks and purples in Ava's signature shapes.
 
Ava chose Lisa for her sharp mind and refusal to be anything other than completely herself. In Ava's style Lisa Simpson is a small person with a big presence.

About the Collection
 
This painting is one of nine original paintings created for MaccPow 2026, Macclesfield's comic art festival, celebrating the town's rich creative heritage. Ava was commissioned to depict females from the world of comics and comic art, characters whose vibrancy, cheekiness, or strength of spirit resonated with her. The result is a collection that is as personal as it is powerful.
