Artist Bio
With over 30 years of snowboarding experience, Stuart Leonard channels the energy, thrill, and serenity of the mountains into vivid acrylic paintings. Each piece is a visceral reflection of his deep connection to snowboarding culture and the landscapes that have shaped his journey. From the rush of carving fresh powder to the stillness of a high-altitude dawn β and even the vibe of his favourite indoor slope β Stuart captures the full spectrum of alpine experience.
For him, snowboarding is not just a sport; itβs a lifelong pursuit, an ongoing dialogue with nature and the art of riding and the turn. His acrylic paintings bring that conversation to life, using bold strokes and dynamic movement to reflect both the exhilaration of dropping into a line and the moments of introspective calm found deep in the mountains.
From spray-filled, action-packed scenes to quiet, meditative landscapes, each work carries the soul of the rider and the mountain. This is snowboard art β created by a rider, for those who feel the deeper call of the snow, the mountains, and the ride itself.
