Leanne Thomas

Leanne Thomas is a Sydney-based artist celebrated for her luminous floral oil paintings that capture the delicate interplay of light, colour, and emotion. Classically trained, Leanne brings a refined technical skill to her work, creating compositions that balance richness and restraint, where vibrant tones meet a subtle, ethereal translucency.

Before dedicating herself fully to painting, Leanne worked as an art director in the advertising industry. This background honed her eye for composition and visual storytelling, skills that now infuse her fine art practice with depth and intentionality. Her transition from the commercial world to the studio was driven by a desire to reconnect with her love of nature, classical art, and the timeless pursuit of beauty.

In her paintings, blooms emerge through delicate layers of oil paint, often surrounded by dramatic contrasts of light and softened areas that fall gently out of focus. The result is work that feels both contemporary and timeless — an invitation for viewers to pause, reflect, and find quiet joy in the natural world.

Ultimately, Leanne Thomas’s art is an expression of light, life, and hope; a celebration of beauty that seeks to resonate with every viewer on a deeply human level.
