Leana Fischer’s artistic journey began in 2013 after she transitioned from a career in architecture to the life of an artist in Fayetteville, Arkansas. This move gave her the opportunity to explore painting as more than just a hobby. Slowly but surely, she reached her goal of becoming a full-time artist.
Painting is Leana’s true calling, an expression of joy and an invitation to others to see the beauty in everyday life. She primarily works with watercolor, a medium that feels natural and deeply connected to her love of the natural world. Each brushstroke of pigment and water is a moment of presence, peace, and reverence for Leana.
“My wish for all of us: that we’ll live in alignment with our deepest values, and share our gifts with the world.”
Over the past decade, her art has not only brought her immense joy but has also helped her connect with kindred spirits worldwide. Her business “May We Fly” has grown from a small website into a thriving enterprise, allowing her to share her artwork globally, teach hundreds of students through in-person and online watercolor workshops, and partner with wonderful brands like Terrain, Trader Joe’s, and Hallmark.
In 2022, Leana and her family made the bittersweet decision to move back to the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. Now, she works and paints from her home studio, surrounded by the beauty that inspires her work. Wherever she is, her art keeps her connected to a growing community of art lovers and creators.
Her latest collection of original pieces will be unveiled at our next virtual art show “Beyond Beautiful“, which opens on August 15th at 10am MDT. The show will close on August 17th at 6pm MDT. Be sure to create your free Collector Account early so you are prepared for the show open!
You can see more of her work at her official website.
