New Explorations
In 2024, Leonard started exploring ways to put movement in his work using both traditional painting and using interference and iridescent paints. He had experimented with iridescent and interference paints back in the 1990s before starting work as an illustrator. He has always had a passion for creating drama and movement. The iridescent and interference paints can create movement in that they change with the light source and/or the point of view. Working with these materials intrigues and challenges him. As an artist, you never stop growing and changing. The images below share one view of the latest works. More are coming!
