Born and raised in Chicago, she draws inspiration from city life and her surroundings, as well as iconography, contemporary culture, vintage signage, guilty pleasure media and television. Leuchtner’s imagery includes an alphabet of imagined or found shapes, varying interpretations of the grid, and a combination of what has been and what is to come. Leuchtner works out of her studio in the East Garfield Park neighborhood of Chicago.

A selection of her recent exhibitions in Chicago include; Lawrence and Clark Gallery, Hans Gallery, and Bianca Bova Gallery, as well as Northeastern Illinois University.
