Leah is a self-taught painter who lives and works in Chicago, Illinois. In March of 2020, she picked up painting as a distraction from what was unfolding around the world. After a few months of fiddling around, accumulating a stack of terrible paintings, and learning from many mistakes, she realized she was developing a knack for working with oils and began to sell her work. Since January 2021, Leah has painted full-time. Her work can be seen at several businesses in the Chicago area.
