Highest Desert, 36” x 36”, Acrylic & Ink by Jaime Leigh

36” x 36”, Acrylic & Ink by Jaime Leigh (New Lisbon, WI). 

Inspired by the raw, elemental beauty of Arches National Park, this piece captures the heat-soaked energy of sun-baked rock and sparse green life clinging to the land. Deep reds, weathered textures, and earthy greens convey the quiet power and resilience of the desert. A love letter to sunlight, stillness, and the ancient stories held in stone.

Artist Statement: As an abstract artist, I create expressive, color-rich paintings that celebrate the beauty of intuition, nature, and emotional depth. My work is rooted in a desire to trust the creative process, embrace imperfection, and let each mark speak without needing words. 

Rather than relying on traditional brushes to complete the painting, I include the marks of a silicone wedge and paint rollers—tools that allow me to move color with intention and spontaneity. I paint without black (most are surprised by this); instead, I rely on harmonious palettes and thoughtful shifts in value to create light, depth, and contrast. 

Each piece reflects my personal journey—one of growth, renewal, and finding beauty in simplicity. My goal with each piece of art is to have it feel both grounded and uplifting, inviting you to pause, feel, and connect with something deeper.
