Artist Statement
![Untitled](/sites/default/files/inline-images/lehl_art_1.jpg)
Art is an exploration of personality. Gathering inspiration from personal interaction directly contributes to creativity while offering ideas otherwise unseen. Handwriting is a two-dimensional expression of an individual's personality, a handshake of thought, an emotion. Each and every character holds a story, an ongoing alphabet to observe, to study, to translate. Collecting personal variations leads to options within creativity, new forms to consider, additional art forms to pursue.
