The Winter Rainbow by Teri Leigh Teed selected for Manhattan Arts International Exhibition

February 28, 2025

The Winter Rainbow, a fine art photograph from Teri Leigh Teed’s Eleanor’s Dream series of her Healing Spirit Art© Collection, has been selected for the 2025 Manhattan Arts International Invitational Exhibition, Love, Peace, Unity and Hope. The exhibition includes over 70 artists from around the world and is curated by Renee Phillips, the owner and founder of Manhattan Arts International, which commemorates its 25th Anniversary in 2025.

The Love, Peace, Unity and Hope Exhibition is on display online at www.manhattanarts.com from January 25 – April 25, 2025.

Teed’s fine art photograph is part of a series she created at night in the Nantahala Forest of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, where Teed resides. The Eleanor’s Dream series highlights a tall, regal Tulip Poplar tree named Eleanor, Queen of the Meadow.

Describing her newest series, Teed says “I paint with Light, with my camera at night. The nightly messages received through my camera lens are profound. These photographs allow a glimpse into the unseen world of our imagination, and gift us the opportunity to travel through time, space and dimensions.”
“The symbols and colors in each photograph are unique and collective. Every interpretation is personal and illuminating, expanding awareness and consciousness.”

“Each night brings Light to the darkness, and gives our souls a glimpse of Eternity. Through Eleanor and her family and friends in the Nantahala Forest, we are reminded that the Spirit of Appalachia is ageless, and dwells in our hearts.”
