Artwork Description

Through my art I love to blend design with education, highlighting the simple beauty of nature and the ocean while also educating people on animal and environmental sustainability.

Newport Rock Pool, is such a special place to me and where I spent a lot of my time during the first Covid lockdown. I wanted to capture the beauty this beach offers on a beautiful sunny day down at Newport. A place of refuge and respite.

Artist Bio

Leah Ramage is a self taught watercolour artist and through her distinct style she aims to capture moments and places, highlighting their simple beauties. Growing up on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, Leah has built a deep connection with the ocean and draws inspiration from her natural surroundings. 

Leah’s works push the boundaries of watercolour, magically capturing the transparency of water and fleeting moments. Australian culture is explored through coastal landscapes, ocean rock pools and moments of people captured doing everyday life. Watercolour and gouache on canvas are her current mediums of choice, while shape and colour are key elements in her artworks.

Her love for the ocean, and the wider natural world, is reflected in her commitment to educating audiences about sustainability and consumerism through art. She likes to think of her work as ‘art for purpose’, with 5% of her profits being donated to the Seabin Project.

Leah’s work has recently been exhibited at The Other Art Fair, Outfall Art Collective and The Studio at Careel Bay. Leah’s distinctive style – along with her creative energy and eye for detail – has made her a much-loved local artist, though the universal appeal of her work has seen it follow the ocean currents to captivate collectors around the world.
