Mandy van Leeuwen

Mandy van Leeuwen is an award-winning contemporary realist painter. Since 1998, she has helped communities across Canada celebrate their culture, milestones, and local heroes by producing unforgettable landmarks. She creates works on canvas in her studio near Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Approaching her paintings with ‘magical realism’, she finds inspiration in the positive transformation of forgotten spaces and objects. Whether depicting old trailers, still life arrangements, or surreal landscapes, her paintings inspire us with a renewed sense of beauty.
