There Are Fairies Living in My Garden

By Olivia Leader. On display in our Boardroom Gallery, February 1 to April 1, 2021.

Artist Statement: My focus has always been to express joy through my art. I take inspiration from the colors that make me happy. My first love in painting was flowers. Always colorful, always joyful. I combined my love of flowers with an abstract touch and have spent much of the last months painting happy, colorful botanical paintings.
