About the studio —

Original linocut prints

Every piece is entirely handcrafted, beginning with a hand-carved block—a process that takes anywhere from 1 to 4 hours. Inspiration comes from people, themes, and everyday moments, first captured in a sketch before being refined and transferred onto the block. Once carved, the block is hand-inked, pressed onto carefully chosen paper, and each print is pulled and evaluated for refinements. Because of this meticulous process, no two prints are exactly alike—each one carries unique variations that highlight the craftsmanship behind it. Every print is hand- signed and made with precision, care, and intention, reflecting an ongoing dedication to creating one-of-a-kind pieces that resonate.

Paintings and drawings

Leigh creates drawings and paintings in a variety of materials, from ink and oil to watercolor. Her paintings often focus on portraiture and personal commissions, while her drawings range from delicate florals to expressive pen and ink studies. Strong line quality is a key element in her work, bringing definition and character to each piece. When working on commissions, she gathers multiple reference photos to capture the subject’s essence, ensuring a personal and thoughtful final piece.
