Local Denver, PA artist Jeanette Leid learned to draw from her mother, here elected high school art classes and then moved on to Millersville University. She has made her art a priority in recent years.

From The Artist
The white birch trees and rustic landscape that become my subjects are full of realistic detail alongside areas of negative space. This contrast demands a studied observation.

My intention is to instill a feeling of "openness" allowing the imagination to become engaged. It is then my hope that the viewer would linger long enough to consider the blessing of nature and through it, the undeniable existence of its creator.
