Leisa Clark

In her teens, Leisa dreamt of being an artist, despite these ambitions, external pressures to
get a normal job led her into the Nursing and Midwifery profession. A back injury, subsequent surgeries, and a battle with depression forced her to confront the fact that she was living a life shaped by others. Choosing to step away from Midwifery in her early 30’s marked Leisa’s return to the creative path.
As an acrylic artist, Leisa’s work is inspired by the great Impressionists and the dynamic spirit of pop art culture. Her artistic approach is characterised by a purposeful use of vibrant colours, with the intention of evoking feelings of joy and a sense of hope. This expressive choice holds particular significance for individuals, such as herself, who grapple withthe complexities of depression and anxiety.
