From fashion-forward faces to graffiti-inspired compositions and mixed-media storytelling, Leah’s style is all about emotion, movement, and individuality.

Artist Statement
My work is ever-changing. The style, the feel, the palette... it's always a work in progress. I love exploring new techniques and compositions. I've never taken an art class - yet I feel connected to the canvas in a way I can't explain. Art is my safe space. I paint when I'm happy, sad, angry, lost or just numb. I'm often inspired by the music I'm listening to at the moment or something that has taken place in my life - be a memory or intense feeling.
I'm glad you're here- in my space; OUR space. I hope that something speaks to you...
