Gary Leonard
Peaceful Places, Oil Painting

2021

About the Item

Artist Comments
A graceful nude surrounded by a glowing abstraction by artist Gary Leonard. The warm composition blends in the soft flowing contours of the figure as she moves facing away from the viewer. The painting explores both realism and abstract that resulting in a calming and compelling work of art.


About the Artist
Through composition, color, texture and more, Gary Leonard celebrates beauty. His works start with the subject, but then he lets the work evolve into a more complex composition. Oftentimes, he enjoys merging figures with abstract images and varying textures. He hopes that his works will leave the viewer with a sense of warmth and peace. When he's not making art, he enjoys listening to music and learning how to play the piano.
