Art critic by Harry Nasse

Further study and experimentation led Leda to develop her own encaustic technique as a vehicle for exploring the subject.
The unique combination of elements Leda Maria brings to her art work, personal, and professional-gives her the credibility of an original. While each individual piece of hers certainly “ speaks for itself,” when seen in the context of the artist’s background, ideas, and singular technique, it gains a degree of vitality and significance that indicates the true measure of the work.
There is no limit to the various materials that might be used in achieving certain effects. She can combine incongruous shapes and objects and make them work together with unusual skill and sensitivity. Leda is an artist through and through. She is one of the best. I am sure this will become more and more apparent as time goes on as she continues to make her mark in the art world.
