Preserved leaf art. Real leaf jewelry, home decor, yard art, fruit bowls, Dragonfly, butterfly and bird sculptures, natural concrete bird baths left unpainted and more all made using real leaves:) Preserving Oregon's nature at it's best!! Yup, there is a whole lot of leaves going on here~
Hello and welcome to my little world of leaves!!!
My name is April Lucas and I am a self taught artist happily living in sunny Bend, Oregon. I'm excited to be a part of Vista Bonita Gallery in Sisters, Oregon. please come in and see my art in person:) My etsy shop is going to be sparse in the jewelry dept. for awhile as I am stocking the Gallery. I will happily create custom pieces, Please contact me anytime:)
It is wonderful preserving the life of leaves that fade away never to be seen again, I love that the leaves I choose live on forever:)
All of my Art is unique, one of a kind and signed. I do not use molds because I want each piece to be 100% unique:) The leaves are hand painted and cast using real leaves therefore the leaf becomes no longer usable after casting making it truly an original piece of art... and in my world leaves have so much potential to be exactly what you want that nature can't always give:) I have been working hard perfecting my line of ~Lucas Leaf Creations~ one of a kind leaf necklace's, earrings and rings:)
Take a look in my sold items and If you see any pieces that you would like please contact me as I may be capable of making more like them though they will be slightly different due to the nature of leaves all being one of a kind:) I welcome you to read my feedback!! All very happy customers:)

A beautiful message that one of my wonderful customers wrote about me that made my heart smile:)
"Her art is just so cool....she just walks along the beach or her farm and picks up a leaf ....... and then poof it is jewelry or a unique nick knack ... I have one at my front door to welcome friends. These make great original authentic - one of a kind gifts. It is like each leaf has its own fingerprints just like a snowflake."
