Creating vibrant oil paintings, using bright colors and light, this is my passion.
I am Leda and I’m an artist.
I’m drawn to experimenting with color combinations and creating contemporary paintings inspired by nature.
Matching my favorite colors despite logic and relying only on my deep down feelings. This is how I can present to you artwork that defies our world and opens up
a door to a different perspective.
Born on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus,
I could only seek to find myself in the stunning light, the salty breeze or the red evening sky,
only to find out that through my paintings, I was composing color patterns that brought out all the elements that could fulfill me. By experiencing nature in all of it’s expressions,
I was intrigued to recreate those moments in my art.
Living and studying Fine Arts in the Aegean islands for seven years, traveling,
connecting and exploring life in its rawest forms, was a catalyst for my growth as an artist. Finding expressions of beauty in abundance, always overcoming the harsh reality.
I learned how to dare, how to become bold
and to underline that we deserve to be happy.
Art is my reminder of the beautiful side of life, keeps me optimistic, grateful
and full of hope.
I create art that is sincere to my beliefs, and mirrors my personality.
Capturing every moment of happiness, celebrating all those wonderful human feelings that are turned into art so that they never get lost in time.
