Leon Hampson West Yorkshire, United Kingdom
Post-digital paintings, drawings and prints.
Leon Hampson studied Fine Art in Manchester and Leicester from 1984 to 1988, before attending the Royal Academy Schools from 1988 to 1991.
He began exploring the use of technology in art in 1994, while pursuing a career as a Graphic Designer, Creative Director, Information and User Experience Designer, and Digital Accessibility Specialist.
Leon returned to full-time artistic practice in 2025, seamlessly blending digital technology with traditional drawing, printmaking, and painting techniques.
