Gabe Leonard - Justice ain't Blind

We are very excited to announce that Gabe Leonard is the latest artist to join Union Art! We absolutely love his cool, contemporary artwork and we're sure you will too. Many pieces in his collection of Signed Limited Edition Prints are already low in stock.

Gabe Leonard spent his early years in the mountain state of Wyoming, sketching wildlife and selling them to his school friends for a dollar. After graduating from Columbus College, Ohio with a BA in Fine Art, he moved to Los Angeles where he first honed his skills on the ultra-competitive boardwalk of Venice Beach.

Following a string of sell-out shows and acquisitions of his work by high profile collectors including Quentin Tarantino, Ruben Fleischer and Charlie Sheen, Leonard has become one of the most sought-after artists in the world, collected in the United States, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Gabe Leonard currently resides in Los Angeles.

Gabe Leonard's style is cinematic, his paintings take you into a world rich with atmosphere and narrative. Justice ain't Blind merges technically brilliant figurative painting with a finely crafted cinematic atmosphere, creating snapshot moments full of narrative possibilities. His work captures rich moods by combining the free brushwork of an expressive artist combined with the lighting and framing of a seasoned Hollywood cinematographer. Gabe Leonard is drawn to rugged and romantic film noir characters. The trademark runs and drips in his work are a deliberate break from academic restrictions and allow him to be more expressive, free and loose. Leonard's style is deeply rooted in the European artistic tradition, drawing particularly on the work of his heroes such as Rembrandt, Alphonse Mucha, Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele.

The full collection of Signed Limited Edition Prints by Gabe Leonard can be viewed at Union Art. Each piece has been reviewed and signed by the artist. Each print series from Union Art is available for immediate delivery and can be shipped worldwide.
