As a conceptual figurative artist, Leslie Balleweg seeks to present people, and the scenes in which they find themselves, in a way that lets the viewer tell the story of the painting.

Perhaps the viewer will see more than one story-each one equally plausible. She also strives to create an image as a whole that speaks to a shared aspect of human nature and the world in which we live.

Using lively full-color examples, Understanding Conceptual Figurative Paintings is the definitive text on this unique, contemporary genre of painting, providing not only a framework for comprehension and interpretation but insight into creation and is suitable for beginning, mid-level, and advanced artists.
