Leon Loughridge Paintings

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.

ABOUT THE ARTIST: Lu Haskew 1921-2009 "Life is good to me. Being able to go to my studio five days weekly and paint for several hours, living in a supportive community, having family and friends who encourage me--all have contributed to helping me become an artist. Being fortunate to study with some of the artists I admire has kept me painting from the garden, people and my favorite things. With the support of galleries, teaching and doing demos, how could I do anything else? My goal is to try to be the best I can be by always being a student, looking for new ideas and stretching my horizons." Upon retirement from a 33-year teaching career, Lu rented a studio in Loveland and began concentrating on her oil and watercolor painting. Learning from artists she had followed and admired throughout the years her painting became a full time career that lasted 17-years. Beginning in 1992, she studied with renowned painters Richard Schmid, Clyde Aspevig, Joyce Pike...
