Art that Opens the Heart and Mind
Leanne's love of drawing came at a very early age. Encouraged by her art instructors, she continued to study art at Rochester Institute of Technology, earning a BA with honors and the Class Portfolio Award in Medical Illustration.
Physical health, healing, and mental well-being have always been a major focus of the artist. Her current work, rendered traditionally with colored pencil (the traditional method allows her the closest connection with the body of work), aims to explore the personal inner meaning behind life challenges.
Leanne uses an intuitive and holistic approach - searching for grace and hope even in situations where emotions are at their darkest. Thoughts, dreams and feelings are very powerful in our overall chemistry and a healthy approach to them is just as important as routine clinical physical maintenance.
Life is to be celebrated and experienced with compassion -- its many stories told in all forms.
