I’m Tera Leigh, an artist and author who loves bringing colorful whimsy to life through pet portraits and books.

A cheerful character with a red nose is riding a bicycle with a wheel in a multicolored pattern. Other smaller characters appear to be interacting playfully around them. The setting includes vibrant, oversized flowers and a checkered wall.

Book Gallery

A colorful showcase of my nonfiction book covers and illustrations.

A colorful mural featuring a cartoon cat with orange fur and black stripes. The cat is depicted with a relaxed expression, its eyes half-closed, and its tongue playfully sticking out. The background incorporates purple and blue hues with bold outlines.
Four children's books are arranged on a wooden surface. Each book cover features an animal and text. The titles include a fox, a horse, a badger, and two squirrels, each illustrated in vibrant colors, emphasizing themes of nature and adventure.
A series of large, framed photographs displayed outdoors, each featuring a different portrait. The portraits have a vintage and artistic style, with varied expressions and poses. A stone sculpture stands in the foreground, creating an interesting contrast between the three-dimensional sculpture and the flat photographic images.
Several colorful books are arranged in a flat lay style. One book has a vibrant red cover with yellow sun and bird designs. Another is titled 'THE BEST PLACES FOR EVERYTHING' and features images in circular cutouts. Nearby, a green book features artwork of plants and animals, and another book has a black and white cover. The background includes a book with red strawberries.
