Tei Leonardo

Ma. Theresa F. Leonardo-Ampon, or simply “Tei Leonardo,” is an up-and-coming post-modern visual artist and a living testament that it is never too late to pursue one’s passion. A lawyer by profession, Tei splits her time defending the cause of the oppressed, promoting and advocating visual arts in the Philippines and being a devoted wife to Erick and mother to RC.  When she is not mixing it up in a court of law, one can surely find her mixing vivid colors to create stunning depictions of floral art which are sure to kindle feelings of joy and celebration of friendship. As a founding member of the Filipino Advocates for Visual Arts, Tei’s passion and enthusiasm for visual arts is matched only by her innate desire to promote and advocate for Filipino art and create a society where art truly is for everyone.
