Southern Oregon Artists Resource

I paint to express an emotion or moment in time. I paint a variety of subjects in many mediums and find in each a joyful challenge; I'm currently experimenting with abstract expressionism. I show my work at the Portland Art Museum, in galleries throughout Southern Oregon and the Saatchi Gallery in London. My father was an artist and my great-great-grandfather was George Inness, an artist of the Hudson River School.

Leah exhibits her abstract and portraiture work nationally and internationally and has been commissioned for over 400 paintings over the past 15 years. Her studio is in Ashland where she teaches painting, drawing, art marketing and making natural earth paints.

Watercolors have been my creative source since the 1980s. I love exploring the endless possibilities this medium offers. Passionate about painting nature in my colorful, loose and interpretive style, I'm never at a loss for inspiration. My art hangs in collections in Koln, Bachingen and Reinsdorf, Germany; Krems and Vienna, Austria; Ryd, Sweden; Wales, UK, and many states throughout the U.S. I am a Watercolor Society of Oregon member.
