After graduating, Davis continued to develop his artistic language Leigh applying his skills has a talented ceramicist, and sculptor in woods, metals and plastics, as well as his painting practice. Leigh is particularly in the deconstruction and isolation of forms and focal points within the landscape. He paints predominantly in oil, creating bold, abstract works that capture the fleeting moments of Cornwall’s rich and varied coastlines, notably the Isles of Scilly; He has recently developed his interests in abstracted figuration and still life.
Davis has expanded his artistic vocabulary to include assemblages constructed from found and recycled objects, bronze sculptures and ceramics.
Davis has been exhibiting widely across the UK, and had his first major solo exhibition at The Nine British Art in 2018.
