Nature lover, adventurer, artist, writer, joy seeker. Like the plants and the animals she captures on canvas, Angie Lea is most alive soaking up the sun, immersed in the landscape of the Pacific Northwest - an enchanting balm to an adventurous soul. Hiking hundreds of miles each year to indulge her senses and serve as inspiration for her art - she can often be found sketching, painting or writing on a mountain summit, on driftwood overlooking the ocean or in a hammock near an alpine lake - gathering small details to bring back to her studio in Olympia, Washington. Author of the guide book “Explore Olympia, Tumwater and Lacey”, Angie is inspired by nature, exploration and sharing her discoveries through her art and writing.
