The Place by Journey through materials, memory and text. |
This Artist book has been self published and shows a selection of visual work and excerpts from journals,
letters and sketchbooks from travels in Canada, America and New Zealand. The book spans the years
of my artistic practice with an overview of painting, collage, drawing and writing. It is available to buy
for a limited time by clicking the link above, and sums up where I find my inspiration, ideas and
influences for new work from the landscape.
Some quotes about my work:
"Through her work and travel, Jenny is on a search for 'a world within a world'. Her paintings explore the
traditional model of landscape painting via an exotic and otherworldly path. They resonate with colour and
memory, whilst retaining a universal understanding."

"Leonard's works are both raw and inaccessible, contrasting bare hessian with the unexpectedly polished finish
of plaster. They capture movement in a strange way: a crystallised dynamism, and an estranged journeyer on the brink."
