Leah's figurative paintings seek to capture the story of female identity in the 21st Century through mixed media and acrylic paint.
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 female figures with vibrant colours, golds and beautiful patterns aims to stimulate a sensual response to the visually intimate nature 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 relationship between colour and form.
