about

Leah East is a contemporary painter currently based in Blindley Heath, Surrey, England. Working primarily with acrylic on canvas, She is best known for her expressive and energetic brushwork. Her artistic signature lies in her painterly interpretations, where colour is employed to evoke feeling, and the inherent form of the brush becomes a crucial compositional element.

Leah’s artistic practice centers on the exploration of energy. Building upon her earlier investigations into abstract energy forms and transformation, her current focus is dedicated to a distinct Feng Shui series. In this ongoing project, she translates ancient principles of harmony and balance, strategically utilising colour as an energetic remedy to enhance well-being and promote positive flow within the visual space.
