About Tara Leigh

Hello! I’m Tara! I’m 34 Years old and have been working as a professional/self representing artist since 2020.

For the longest time, I thought I had to find a "niche." I spent my early years trying to paint what I thought other people wanted to see. Then, during my studies, I had a breakthrough: the only art worth making is the art that makes me happy.

That simple idea changed everything.

I decided to paint what I love: the fun, the familiar, and the fantastic. My work is a joyful mashup of my biggest inspirations. I borrow the vibrant, electric colors from Pop Art, the bold experimentation from modernism, and the crystal-clear quality of the Old Masters. I love combining expressive, energetic brushstrokes with a finish that makes you want to reach out and touch it.

My goal is simple: to make the ordinary extraordinary. I want to bring light, laughter, and a little bit of whimsy into your home. Whether a painting makes you smile with the comfort of a fond memory or sparks an outright chuckle, I'm painting to bring you joy.

We all need more whimsy in our lives, and I'm happy to be doing my part.
