About the Featured Artist

Marija Leilynn is a classic, detailed, and versatile artist who seeks to document authentic life and inspire thoughtfulness for what’s beyond. She often incorporates her faith and what she believes as spiritual truths into her concepts. She works from the heart, dedicated to being intentional with every aspect of what she creates. She works with oil painting and photojournalism as visual mediums, both of which are supplemented by a consistent practice of poetry.
