Welcome!
My name is Leon Ramakers. I hope you enjoy looking at my artworks as
much as I’ve enjoyed creating them. I’m a self-taught artist and I’ve been
drawing and painting for as long as I can remember. I generally prefer to
paint realism, although I also paint abstracts and the occasional portrait.
I love nature in all its forms, particularly New Zealand landscape, flora and
fauna, and I enjoy portraying it using contrasts of line, shape, light, colour
and textures. Although I usually paint in acrylics or oils, I’ve also created
artworks in pencil, inks, charcoal, pastels, and watercolours.
If you're interested in buying any of the artworks in my Gallery, please don't hesitate to get in touch by emailing me via the Contact page. I also do commission work, so I can create a specific painting for you. Just contact me by phone or email and we can discuss what you would like.
I'm a graphic artist by profession as well, so if you want me to do any graphic design or production work for you, you can contact me about that as well.
