"I`m a man with an insatiable craving for creation."
Leno Morfin was born July 10, 1954, in a little village of the Sierra Madre in Mexico. As a child, Leno had a passion for creation. His curiosity led him to explore his artistic nature in different kinds of trades like shoe making and fine carpentry, painting and sculpture. In 1970 at the age of sixteen, his family immigrated to the United States.
For the next twenty years he took on many artistic challenges which always led him to painting. To this he quotes himself, "Life is like a toy store filled with many exciting toys, which makes it difficult to decide which one to choose. We almost forget, though, that within oneself we have the best toy we will ever own."
Throughout his voyage, he discovered the man within. Leno`s abstract art is a reflection of his heartaches and dreams. His visions led him to create a simple yet passionate work with the use of ardent colors in oil and acrylic. In 1994, Mr. Louis Durot discovered Leno`s art work in Chicago. Since then Leno has been exhibiting his art throughout the US and the world.
