Artist Profile
Leila Mead
Leila is an artist based in South London. She moved up to London after a six year stint in Bristol, where she received her foundation diploma in Art and Design at Bristol School of Art and a BA (Hons) in Drawing and Print at Bristol UWE. Her work is an expression of colour, figure and form. Through carefully orchestrated colour combinations and drawings, she attempts to convey sensuality and fluidity. Her work aims to celebrate the feminine nude, and invites the viewer to appreciate the curves, shapes and colours of her works subjects. She enjoys going through a creative process, completing each step until there is a definitive clean-cut product. Screen printing allows her to fulfil this enjoyment whilst also allowing her to concentrate on the colour aspect.
