Leigh Donovan

Born in England in 1970, Leigh Donovan has lived in Cyprus with his Cypriot wife, for the past 12 years.

Always interested in art, even at a young age, Leigh would spend all his pocket money on paper, coloured pencils and crayons. Encouraged by his parents and teachers, his love of art led him to study the subject at a higher level, including art history, whereby he was inspired further by the classic artists of the past and present.

Having completed his Fine Art foundation course at Leicester University in 1999, he has continued his vocation in art, developing his own unique style, utilising various mediums in a combination of graphic and fine art techniques.

His work includes both set pieces of still life, and spontaneously inspired imaginative art.

All imagery has been crafted on black paper using watercolour pencils, inks and paint, which allow for a plethora of hues, inflections and a depth that take you on a journey through his unique mind.

Each piece of work is inspired and crafted in Leigh’s own style, with attention to detail, a striking range of colour and a touch of surrealism.

“I don't do bowls of fruit, I like to experiment with colours and let the piece spontaneously evolve. If it's not to people's tastes, I hope that they at least feel that they have seen something different and original.”
