ALANA LEA

Alana harmonizes imagery with informative wordplays, transforming them into spirited showpieces. Her signature works are digital collage including hand rendered paintings with photography and factual information. She has not succumbed to AI.

Her paintings, prints and textiles dwell in private collections throughout the United States, Canada, Britain, France and Brazil. They've been exhibited at the Bruce Museum of Arts and Sciences and at the Smithsonian Institution in partnership with the US Botanical Garden in Washington, D.C.

Prints of her paintings have been sold in the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History and are presently available at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art in Washington state.

Alana’s textile banners have been displayed at climate change conferences: COP22 in Morocco, COP23 in Germany, COP24 in Poland as well as the Global Climate Action Summit in San Francisco, California and the World Agroforestry Congress in Montpellier, France.

Alana’s first talk for "Humanity Unites Brilliance" rewarded her with a standing ovation!

Since then she has spoken for The Manzanita Institute Speaker series in Los Angeles, as well as conferences“Soil Not Oil” in San Francisco and "California Vision 2020" in Sacramento.

She also offered a TEDx talk at the American University of Paris as well as U.N. Climate Change Conferences: COP22 in Marrakesh, COP23 in Bonn, COP24 in Katowice and COP25 in Madrid encouraging international engagement in solutions activism.

Born in Brazil to American and British parents, Alana cultivated a passion for the plant kingdom from her very first steps upon the earth. Decades later, her experience as a landscape designer in Puerto Rico created the backdrop for future rainforest education and renewal projects.

In 2026 the focus has been to expand educational outreach for youth to adapt to the changes we all face.

In 2010 Alana became the founder of the non-profit iGiveTrees projects in Brazil. They were recognized by the French Ministry of Environment as one of "100 Projects for the Climate.”
