LeAnne Hoffman Art

As an artist I am constantly experimenting and looking for new ideas, by exploring the versatility of materials, subject matter and style to engage a variety of audiences. I am an artist that loves blending and merging colours‚ from the more detailed fantasy trees series through to my more recent semi abstract free flowing landscapes. While I am not a devotee of traditional landscape, these new works are from an aerial perspective using drone photography and google earth where I can zoom down exploring and capturing light and dark spaces, fractured shapes, airy patterns, juxtaposed with unexpected textural elements, makes my work suggestive and in a unique way drifts between realism and abstraction. I have developed my own style that reinterprets natural landscapes by using a mixture of brushstrokes with the interplay and unpredictability of colourful paints and inks being poured across the canvas. The overriding power of my work is colour and pattern, it can be subtle, bold, restful or sassy. It can evoke a memory, a mood or feeling that can affect a sense of wellbeing or discomfort all combined to depict another version of our planet.
