Heinrich Leonhard is an artist and craftsman born in Tubingen, Germany, but raised in the Midwest. Spending his childhood summers visiting his home country has given him a unique creative eye, blending the warmth of his Midwestern childhood with the creative detail of traditional Swiss-German art.

Heinrich has collaborated with Grant Elementary for many years to create tile murals with the third and fourth grade classes.

Heinrich also created a ceramic ornament which was used on the White House holiday tree in 2001.

Heinrich also travels all over the Midwest visiting craft shows and selling hand crafted ceramic ornaments, a business started by his mother.

Heinrich participates in community art shows, using it as an opportunity to express his creativity in different ways.
