LeAnne Mawby Sowa is a west Michigan artist who paints with an appreciation of history and love of the Great Lakes. Her lighthouses and lake scenes are reminiscent of summer vacation times exploring the state’s wonders. Sowa’s colors are vibrant, and she also brings to life the historic beauty of barns and other places far from the shoreline. Her artistic education is through self exploration, workshops and a few college classes, including Hertfordshire College in Ware, England.
