New to Artclectic

“I am inspired to create art due to nature's endless color combinations, it’s shapes, and the beauty of the human race,” says Leroy Hodges. “My art offers the viewer possibilities into the human experience. I hope my art will enlighten, educate, and empower the viewer.”

As a self-taught artist, Leroy discovered the love of painting during the late 1990s through self-study, workshops, and training under various artists.

“My artistic process is versatile in essence, form, and themes. My process of working is always a process of discovery as seldom do I have a clear picture of what the final results will be. I am always open to endless possibilities. I enjoy the dialogue that takes place within myself and between the painting as it is being developed. I enjoy working with an intense colorful palette which is bold, vibrant and may include styles of cubism, blues tones, and artistic works with musical themes.”
