Gordon Leverton's art is recognizable at a glance: striking geometry, vibrant acrylic palettes, and shadows that stretch across surfaces like time. By isolating structures and simplifying form, he invites viewers to see familiar spaces with a fresh perspective. His work captures not just what a city looks like, but how it feels. It's a practice built on close observation, abstraction, and deep attention to what's often overlooked.

Being self-taught just means you found your own way in. That's exactly what Leverton did. With no formal art training, he turned to the city around him for inspiration. Rooftops. Alleyways. Side Streets.

He began breaking the built environment into planes of colour, light, and shadow-transforming the everyday into bold, graphic compositions that carry his unmistakable voice. His recognizable aesthetic and widespread presence resonate with audiences, forging strong connections through his art and collected in public and private collections throughout Canada, US, Mexico, Europe and internationally.

Leverton is proof of what's possible when you stay curious, keep working, and trust that your perspective matters.
