About Leonard Ragouzeos
Leonard Ragouzeos'
artwork shifts periodically from pure abstract painting, rich in color
and formal relationships, to highly realistic, large black and white
portraiture and still-life drawings and paintings in ink, dense in emotional
content and illuminated by an almost baroque light. Galleries of Ragouzeos’
art within the site illustrate abstract as well as representational
works in various media including, India ink, gouache and encaustics,
and wood. The site also contains essays by Ellen Slupe, Scot Borofsky,
and J. Susan Isaacs. Leonard gives workshops in Calligraphy and has
included samples of his calligraphy and lettering on the site. His artwork
has been compared to such artists as Chuck Close, Brice Marden and Sean
Scully.
