Patrick Leonard HRHA (1918-2005)

The realist Irish artist Patrick Leonard was born in County Dublin.  He studied fine art painting and figure drawing under Sean Keating and Maurice MacGonigal at the Metropolitan School of Art, Dublin (now the National College of Art & Design).

He started exhibiting at the Royal Hibernian Academy (RHA) in 1941.  Such was Leonard's talent that the academy offered him associate membership just a year later. In 1952 he represented Ireland at the Olympic Games exhibition at Helsinki.

From 1953 to 1982, Leonard was a full time art teacher in Dublin.  adly, bouts of illness often interrupted his work as both an artist and teacher. Although he would stop painting during these periods, he always continued sketching and drawing.

Indeed, for much of his early life Leonard sketched everywhere he went, every minute of the day. He made drawings on the train, waiting for a bus, while adjudicating exams - everywhere.
