French Quarter Art by King Leon

Leon King’s Artworld -------------------------------------------- the Angelfire Gallery of Fine Art (eat your heart out Ansel Adams) Leon King discovered his natural talent for art when he was in kindergarten, drawing clowns and glueing beads on the cardboard to fill in his designs. He developed his talent throughout his schoolyears and went on to spend afew years in the mid-seventies painting what he saw on Jackson Square, making a living selling his paintings there. Since then he has lived in California where he designed T-shirts. He now resides in Baton Rouge where he paints french quarter scenes completely from memory. His paintings also include swamps, plantations, riverboates and even LSU football players. Also included are some of Leon's Fashion Designs which he claims were stolen by Master-P. If anyone can find any evidence on the web like pictures of his "Percy Miller" clothing line that resemble the ones here please email me!
