Aline de Leandro

If you have a moment, I would like to invite you to have a look around my site.  You may note that my palette features bold vibrant colours which I use to depict mainly figurative works, as I find the human form very appealing.   I feel people and their expressions give life to my paintings.

Love, family, friendship, humour, happiness and the environment are topics that I find myself painting.  Through these paintings I try to depict kinship, warmth, gentleness, innocence and humanity - much of which I feel are lacking in our world today.  I want my paintings to allow us to belive that these qualities are still within us. 

I believe that when you look at a painting it should raise your spirit to a higher plane; just as a stirring piece of music can transport you to another dimension.

There are many issues in the world that 'interest' me.  The unnecessary killing of whales by the Japanese led me to write to politicians last year to put a stop to this macabre slaughter once and for all.  I am heartened to advise that they all responded to my letters and assured me that they will do everything in their power to protect the whales.  lets hope that this year sanity prevailes.

Please have a look around and I hope you enjoy your tour.

Thank you for your time and happy browsing.
