A self taught artist, Leah has been living and working in central Florida since 1979. She began her art career as a watercolorist, participating in outdoor art festivals all over the state of Florida. Since then she has taught art to children and adults, painted murals, illustrated children's books, worked as a sidewalk chalk artist at Disney's Annimation Celebration and developed a passion for all things Italian. Her passion is evident in her landscapes and cityscapes of Italy done in oils. Leah's other focus is on portraiture and figure painting in soft pastels and oils. Many of her subjects are painted using old family photographs as references. You can commission a painting by contacting Leah through email at Leah@lwiedemer.com or telephone - 407-765-5745 |
