Leon Loughridge Art

American, b. 1952
Raised on a ranch outside of Santa Fe, Leon grew up surrounded by the rich artistic traditions of Northern New Mexico. His earliest influences came from his grandmother, who was deeply involved in the region’s art circles and introduced him to a community of Taos and Santa Fe artists. Under their guidance, he began developing the foundations of his craft. When his family moved to Colorado at age 15—the home of his great‑grandfather—Leon carried those early lessons with him, later refining his skills through study at the Colorado Institute of Art and additional private instruction. During his service in the army, Leon was stationed in Germany, an experience that broadened his artistic perspective. Extensive travel throughout Europe exposed him to centuries of artistic heritage, and he spent two years studying the painting techniques of the old masters. His time culminated in copying a Franz Hals work at the Stuttgart Staatsgalerie, a formative milestone. Already drawn to pen and ink, he developed a deeper appreciation for etching through the museum’s exceptional print collection. Leon has continued to expand his printmaking expertise and now owns a publishing company specializing in high‑quality, hand‑printed art editions for artists and commercial clients. He and his wife also operate a gilding studio, where they produce and restore hand‑carved gold‑leaf frames for museums and collectors, preserving the craftsmanship and traditions that have shaped his artistic life.
