Leah (Anne) McCall

Leah (Anne) McCall began creating art as a little girl. After a dear friend was shot and killed she dedicated an oil pastel series to him in the early 2000's. Leah graduated with a BS in psychology and worked successfully as an assessment counselor for over 20 years. Then she went to graduate school and earned an MA in Education teaching until Co-vid. Leah decided to return to art. She began working with acrylics. The first festival she entered was the Red River Revel in 2022 and 2023. She loves participating in the small pop up markets and Highland Jazz Festival locally. Leah also loves attending the larger art markets in Houston: Art in the Park, Sienna Art Festival, Sugarland, Pecan Art Festival. She has been to markets in Natchitoches, Baton Rouge, and Breaux Bridge, LA. She also uses these her wildlife series. Leah currently lives in Bossier City, happily married to William McCall. Her work is heavily influenced by spiritualism. According to Leah,,"Each of my pieces represents a piece of me. I literally scrape out the insides of my inner being when I create my work with my emotions"
