Meet the Artist - Leaca Young

Artist : I am an artist living in Alaska. I am very inspired by the life and nature that surrounds me, with a vintage and sometimes whimsical touch. Vintage papers are in most of my creations. I find it healing to connect to the past and see the future in our art. I mostly work with watercolor and acrylic but dabble in other mediums. Tiny bits of paper that can seem insignificant and glue sticks are what make my heart happy

Journal Writer : I have always been a a journal writer off and on throughout my life. Only when my son passed away in 2022 did I make it a daily habit. At first it was just to ‘brain dump’ all of my emotions. Later I found it to be the greatest form of self care and personal history keeper.
