Leah Yellowbird describes her progress in the context of survival; painting and artwork are like breathing to her. She draws inspiration from traditional art forms while adding a modern voice to the imagery, the result of which evokes a sense of nostalgia and wonder.

Her work is a visual manifestation of time - each dot embodying a moment and a prayer. Using precision, pressure and symmetry, her pointillistic style leaves viewers humbled and curious -- they walk away having seen something that they've never seen before.
