About Lesa Smith

I am a West Virginia-based abstract painter who is most recognized for using many layers, natural textures, and a spiritual subject in my works.
Scripture influences me, and the surroundings of mountains and rivers motivate me. Along with acrylics, layering and texture are incorporated into my paintings from nature, such as rocks and bark that I transform into natural pigments and textural elements.
My paintings have evolved into my ministry to spread the hope and healing that art can bring to others’ lives after I personally experienced the benefits that it brought to my own life.
