About The Artwork

The trumpet player is a tribute to Miles Davis, "In a Silent Way". Miles was one of the greatest jazz musicians ever. His music, which Leonard often plays in his studio, had a hand in inspiring the musician dragons. This was one of the first images he created in the dragon series. *** Leonard has long loved fantasy and whimsy. Dragons are mythical and magical creatures with serpentine or reptilian traits that have been the subject of legends for centuries. Up until the present, two cultural traditions of dragons existed, one from Europe and the Middle East, the other from the Far East. Now a unique and gentler dragon, not your typical dragon, has emerged from the New World…anthropomorphic dragons, some with musical talents and some that have discovered such as good wine, a fun poker night with best friends, or even riding a Vespa through the city, all created by Leonard Filgate.

I was born and raised in San Francisco and started my career as a fine artist, selling mainly maritime art on the streets of San Francisco in the 1970s. I eventually landed in some San Francisco and Monterey galleries. During the1970s and into the 1990s I also worked on set designs for videos, props for Hollywood, and commissioned artwork and murals. In the late 1990s, I moved my family to Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, so I could be closer to my main gallery located there. Eventually, my own RIP SQUEAK® gallery was opened with partners in Carmel. It, along with numerous other galleries under the RIP SQUEAKk® name throughout California and Hawaii, closed with the economic downturn in 2010. I am still a children's book illustrator and fine artist and have continued to create art for RIP SQUEAK® books and other titles. My most successful work to date has been based on the character RIP SQUEAK® consisting of both books and art, which I created and developed with my wife, author Susan Yost-Filgate.
