by LH


by LH was born on a day when I needed a few days away from writing. Painting became the perfect outlet. It was a way to clear my mind while still staying creative. What began as a personal reset quickly grew. I entered a neighborhood art show, then started creating cards for family and friends. In those early painting sessions, I noticed all the imperfections, and instead of hiding them, I chose to embrace them. I began outlining the flaws with squiggly lines, and that distinctive style eventually became my signature. You can explore some of my artwork in a virtual gallery created by my brother, Brad Hamilton, through his company Creative Spins.

* Please Note: * I am not a photographer, so the colors in the paintings may appear slightly different from the originals. The watercolor paper is white, not greyish or yellow as shown.
