Originally trained in scenic painting and theatre design, Leavold approaches painting with a strong sense of atmosphere and movement, creating works that evoke energetic exchange, transformation and flow. Her paintings are characterised by sweeping forms emerging from dark grounds, with layered glazes and wet-into-wet applications producing their distinctive softness and luminosity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeavold describes abstraction as a language capable of expressing experiences that sit beyond literal representation:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“I hope to take the viewer on a journey into another world, one that sits below the surface, a world of energetic exchange and flow. I feel that this can only be expressed in abstraction, removing the preconceived ideas and speaking in a language of colour and movement.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing inspiration from observations of nature within man-made environments, her work balances immediacy and control, allowing forms to emerge intuitively through colour, gesture and layered transparency. The resulting paintings feel both atmospheric and deeply physical, occupying a space between landscape, memory and sensation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeavold studied Theatre Design at Northbrook College between 1999 and 2001. She has exhibited extensively throughout the UK, Europe and the United States.
