Leanna Arnold, shown at left with a recent oil entitled “Lighthouse,” is working her art with a 23-painting show at the Owen Valley Winery, in Spencer, Indiana. Her show runs through February 13, 2013. A full-time student at Ivy Tech, in Bloomington, Arnold’s educational goal is to continue her coursework all the way—to a master’s degree in Art Education and a post-secondary teaching career.
Arnold works in three main styles: illustration, abstract expressionism, and surrealism. The oil on canvas shown at right,
entitled “Buckle Up,” demonstrates her current goals: focus, optical illusion, flow, and grid.
The painting shown at left is untitled. “This, for me,” Arnold says, “represents the moment in time when motion has stopped, and you’re able to see the balance in its formation. The point is, it is there. I can see it growing.”
Arnold has worked in several mediums including stone, wood, clay, pencil, oil, acrylics, and chalk, and calls herself a constant student and educator.
