Sarah Jane Collects: Valerie Leuchs

 

Valerie Leuchs is a talented intuitive artist in New York, and a dear friend! We met through our gallery representation, Liza Pruitt, and have even been so lucky as to meetup in-person a few times now.

Valerie, recently released a collection called Live Colorfully, which lives up to its name!

Brantley and I have been talking about collecting one of Valerie’s pieces for a while now, and we found the perfect one in her new collection.

“Flying Point” now hangs in our foyer, welcoming you as soon as you walk in the front door. We love the juxtaposition of different textures and shapes, and of course the bright colors!

Valerie very kindly delivered “Flying Point” to us while she was in Wilmington visiting family, and we caught up over a bottle of wine on a double-date with our husbands!

“My paintings represent a feeling, moment in time, or special life experience. I am influenced by New York City (the place I have called home for the last 20 years), interiors, fashion, and nature. … My hope is to produce a painting that brings joy, beauty, and a story to the home where it will live.” — Valerie Leuchs

I want to live a colorful life, don’t you? You can collect one of Valerie’s paintings for your own home here.
