Herb Leonhard
Herb Leonhard was born in Munich, Germany but grew up in the United States. One of his earliest memories was of a beautifully illustrated series of German children's books. This, along with a childhood spent within the pages of comics, inevitably led to a career as an artist with a love of many of the classic painters & illustrators, both traditional and contemporary, including the Pre-Raphaelites, Maxfield Parrish, Alphonse Mucha, Brian Froud and Roger Dean.
Having been a professional illustrator and graphic designer for over twenty years, he remains able to observe the natural world around us with a sense of wonder, and sees every subsequent painting and drawing as a new learning experience. His published illustration work includes the book "Lyrics" by Tori Amos, "Matthew's Box" by K.B. Reish, a sereies of classic fairy tales for Glenndoman Korea and his own coloring book, "The Faerie Garden".
He lives in Washington State, USA with his wife Allyson, son Laurent, one horse, one dog, one cat and a plethora of chickens.
