“What delights me most about Leah’s work is the way she so skillfully combines wisdom, insight and playfulness. A freshness and immediacy permeates her drawing and her text that is obviously garnered from personal experience. This is no replay of The Old Masters. I can almost smell the hard-won clarity of the Zendo percolating off her pages. Reading her words and apprehending her drawings a second or third time brings new understanding and insight. I have never come across anything that is quite so illuminating, and at the same time, so playful. And when we play, we learn.”
