Leopold Segson -- Fine Art

Artist Profile

He began to draw from primary school, learning how to sketch the natural sciences, "presentation specifications" and the crisp picture of his classmates in the playground.  Adopting school in third grade, he made several painting stages. Completing his apprenticeship with a painter, Zare Faisal, he gradually found his personal style.
