Leonardo Drew


Leonardo Drew is an artist known for his work of print making and his exhibit at Pace Prints.  Drew uses various mediums from wood, tarps, binds of nails to a variety of power tools.  Drew got his start at age 13, when he had his first exhibition among his peers where he commemorated his newspaper photograph. Leonardo Drew was inspired by different artists like Norman Rockwell, Maxwell Parrish and Jackson Pollock. I found it interesting that Drew reworks his on pieces and some are always in a constant state of incompletion. He says that his stuff is just continuing on and is never unsuccessful.  For his Pace Prints exhibit he starts out by creating works and then making, molds from that, it’s like making a puzzle and then putting then to a press.
