In Lovely Days and Rowdy Nights, Leah Tinari continues to explore themes of family and relationships through depictions of herself and her friends. As Leah grows, so does her cast of characters.

All of Leah’s new paintings, ranging in size from 8” x 10” to 50” x 60”, are still based on photographs from actual events. However, stylized moments, cartoon graphics and related thoughts are intertwined to create a more layered narrative.

Images from outer space, the Museum of Natural History and Leah’s imagination are incorporated into the original moment. People who have followed her career will notice that the characters in the paintings are slowly aging and they, as viewers, have been privy to her visual diary.
