Leah's abstract paintings seek to capture the story of human emotions through mixed media and acrylic paint, specifically the feelings of contentment and happiness.
Her technique of layering multiple coats of paint, paper and polyurethane on the surface of the canvas focuses on finding comfort in the visual relationship between the sensuality of form and the beauty of colour.
The combination of vibrant warm colours with golds and beautiful patterns aims to stimulate an intimate feeling of happiness and contentment that only a product of beauty can initiate within the viewers.
Predominately inspired by the Abstract Expressionists Mark Rothko and Hans Hoffman, Leah's paintings combine the intricacy of Modernism with the impulsiveness of Abstract Expressionism creating a contemporary genre of abstract painting that seeks to begin a dialogue of how viewers emotionally react to the relationships between colour and form.
