About Amelia Leonards Art

Amelia Leonards Art brings folklore-inspired watercolor and graphite work to the Haunted Happenings Marketplace on the Essex Street Pedestrian Mall and at Derby Square in Salem, Massachusetts. Amelia creates fantastical imagery shaped by world folklore and mythology, with luminous birds and creatures, goddesses, curious characters, and the occasional irresistible animal pun.

The collection includes original artwork, matted prints in 8×10 and 11×14 sizes, greeting cards, illustrated booklets, calendars, eco-friendly handmade pillowcases, stickers, and buttons. Each piece offers a different way to step into Amelia’s imaginative world — whether through a detailed original, a small illustrated keepsake, or a mischievous Cathulhu.

Folklore, Myth, and a Little Animal Mischief

Amelia’s work pairs traditional watercolor and graphite techniques with a playful approach to storytelling. Mythic figures and fantastical creatures share space with warmth, humor, and visual details that reward a closer look, making the collection appealing to art collectors, folklore lovers, and shoppers searching for an unusual Salem keepsake.
