Michelle Leivan
Topeka, UNITED STATES
My work chronicles my search for the spirit that touches the soul through the female and floral forms with a focus on color, expression, strength and the concept of the sacred feminine.
Educated at Fort Hays State University, I have been distinguished as the featured visual artist at the Kansas River Valley Art Fair, Topeka Jazz Festival, Aaron Douglas Art Fair and has been nominated for the Kansas Governor’s Artist Award. My work has also been honored by being selected to hang in the Kansas capital building, including Governor Sebelius’ conference room and for the Art in Embassies Program as part of the exhibition at the U.S. Ambassador to Paraguay in the U.S Embassy Residence in Asuncion.
I have participated in one person shows and exhibits at the Manhattan Arts Center, Art Council of Topeka, True Art Gallery and Topeka Performing Arts Center. She has also exhibited in several juried competitions on the internet and in Soho New York. My work is represented in the Ellis County Historical Archives as well as in several corporate and private collections.
