Juanita Lives in Montgomery Alabama where she has built her own church and environment. She, a single parent, raised one daughter who is an successful attorney. She has appeared in both Raw Vision magazine and Museum of American folk Art magazine. She is a preacher and a fantastic human being---She has had visions telling her what to build and visions with clementine Hunter. She is beyond great!
Life is wonderful and filled with surprises. Early this century I owned Graves Country Gallery. I did my own framing. I represented this wonderful , beloved artist Juanita Leonard. She was and is the real thing---a great folk artist! I advertised her in Raw Vision Magazine and the Museum of American Folk Art magazine.---The other day I was looking at eBay and one of her greatest paintings popped up. It was framed in the frame I made for it.I just couldn't afford it. A deal was negotiated and the price came down a little but I still couldn't afford it--but into my saving account I went---and I made the deal. i now own this wonderful painting!--oh such wonderful memories!
