Leah Andrews painting of Yosemite National Park’s Half Dome.
Local artist Leah Andrews will be showing her work at the Copeland Gallery in Minden starting Tuesday through Aug. 29.
The majority of Andrews’ pieces are acrylic, but she also works in oils or a combination.
“In my work, I strive to evoke not just visual beauty, but a sense of narrative depth,” Andrews said. “Each painting is a chapter waiting to be explored, inviting the viewer to become an active participant in the story. Whether it’s a serene countryside bathed in the glow of twilight or the magnificent power of a raging river, my aim is to capture moments that resonate with human experience.”
The exhibit may be viewed 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday, where they will be available for purchase.
“Leah’s paintings are akin to listening to a storyteller weave tales that transport listeners to distant lands,” according to the gallery. “Each brushstroke serves as a narrative thread, inviting the viewer onto a journey. Much like a skilled storyteller captures attention with vivid descriptions, her paintings evoke scenes that beckon the mind to wander and explore. Viewers of her paintings find themselves drawn into the atmospheric landscapes and intimate scenes depicted on canvas, guided through a journey of emotions and memories.”
The Carson Valley Arts Council will host a reception for Andrews 1-3 p.m. July 19.
