From 1974, besides painting and travelling along, Michel LEONARD owns, in France
's southern seaside
,
"ready to wear" (pret a porter)
women clothing shops
. Numerous travels in Asia, which added to his own interest for fashion, incite him to start his own collections in Bali by using “Batik”* process as well as highly colored hand painted fabrics (*Batik = wax
coated
areas on fabric
s
before dying )
In 1998 at the age of 48, he decides to “
let go of
everything” according to his own saying, and for
the next
ten years turns into a deep sea sailor on board his
own catamaran.
All these years at sea force him to neglect painting, yet
h
e keeps on “thinking and pondering about his own art tinged with imagination and fancy”
.
LEM stands without a doubt among the pioneers of a style which was to be called later in time “La Figuration Libre” of which he gladly agrees to stand the comparison
.
H
is art be
com
ing more eclectic and evolutionary brings it closer to “Les Arts Premiers” a school of painting issued from “L´Art Brut”.
At present, LEM operates mainly
on
order
s.
He particularly appreciates these compulsor
y factors
as they force him to focus his inspiration
upon
his clients´ requests.
