I WAS BORN IN CINCINNATI, OHIO TEN MONTHS AFTER MY PARENTS, PETE & MARY LEONTAKIANAKIS (NAME SHORTENED TO LEON AT IMMIGRATION) ARRIVED FROM THE VILLAGE OF GERAKI IN SOUTHERN GREECE.  I BECAME ENAMORED OF SCULPTING IN ART CLASSES AT WALNUT HILLS HIGH SCHOOL.  THINKING THAT SCULPTURE WOULD BE A LIFE-LONG HOBBY, I ATTENDED THE UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI, PURSUING MEDICAL FIELD STUDIES AND GETTING CERTIFIED AS A RESPIRATORY THERAPIST.  WHILE THERE, I TOOK A FEW ART CLASSES AS ELECTIVES AND LATER AT THE CINCINNATI ART ACADEMY.  PRIVATE STUDIES WITH SCULPTORS JAY BOLOTIN AND WALTER DRIESBACK INSPIRED AND ENCOURAGED ME TO MAKE SCULPTING MY FULL TIME OCCUPATION IN 1980.  BY 1985 I WAS ABLE TO QUIT MY PART-TIME WORK IN RESPIRATORY THERAPY TO PURSUE SCULPTURE FULL TIME.  STARTING WITH EXHIBITS AT GREEK FESTIVALS, SIDEWALK SHOWS, AND ART FAIRS, I SLOWLY GREW INTO EXHIBITING MY WORK IN NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL SHOWS AND IN GALLERIES AND MUSEUMS; AND TO DOING PRIVATE, PUBLIC, AND CORPORATE COMMISSIONS.

MY FIRST LARGE SCALE COMMISSION CAME WHEN THE WILDLIFE ARTIST, JOHN RUTHVEN, ASKED ME TO SCULPT AN EAGLE FROM DRAWINGS HE HAD DONE FOR THE STALAG LUFT III PRISONER OF WAR MEMORIAL AT WRIGHT PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE IN DAYTON, OHIO, IN 1996.  SINCE THEN I HAVE DONE MANY COMMISSIONED BRONZES AND STONE OR WOOD CARVINGS FOR CLIENTS FROM COLORADO TO MAINE AND COSTA RICA TO CANADA AND GREECE.  MY OWN SELF GENERATED, CREATIVE WORKS (OVER 500 HUNDRED BRONZES, SEVERAL DOZEN WOOD & STONE CARVINGS, AND COUNTLESS GYPSUM CASTS) ARE IN COLLECTIONS IN SAUDI ARABIA, ENGLAND, GREECE, COSTA RICA, AUSTRALIA, THE US, AND CANADA.

I TAUGHT STONE CARVING AT THE CINCINNATI ART ACADEMY’S COMMUNITY EDUCATION PROGRAM FOR FIVE YEARS AND NOW TEACH STONE AND WOODCARVING, CLAY MODELING, AND MOLD-MAKING PRIVATELY AT MY STUDIO IN SHARONVILLE, OHIO.  I AM AN EXHIBITING MEMBER OF THE NATIONAL SCULPTURE SOCIETY AND THE CINCINNATI ART CLUB WHERE I ALSO SERVED ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
