Leigh Royer is predominately a landscape painter, with a BA in Fine Arts and Master’s in Industrial Design. After pursuing a 15 year career in Product Design and Development in NYC, she has relocated to Charleston, SC to pursue her metier in painting.
Her work, mostly representational, comes from travel experiences and various coastal and city observations. She enjoys painting Plein Air and in the studio using various mediums, watercolor, oil and pastel, her passion is pastel. Finding inspiration in interpreting light and color with energetic brushstrokes and emphasis on capturing a particular moment or scene. The process is a continual evaluation and artistic editing to paint simply what is essential to the composition and creates an emotional response rather than rendering a specific place.
