Article lead photo and write-up Though local artist Leslie Rowland is widely known for transforming vintage furniture into fine art, this current exhibition focuses on her abstract paintings. Stunning contradictions on canvas, her paintings are both bold and simple; understated, yet intricately detailed. By combining traditional methods and a few of her own techniques, she has created a one-of-a-kind medium to complement her distinctive style. Shimmery and shiny, her paintings more closely resemble fused glass and enamel on metal as opposed to mixed media on canvas.
