Leigh was born and raised in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, where he resided for the first twenty years of his life. Mostly self-taught, he has received no formal art qualifications or training.
Lambert relocated to Warwickshire with his family in 1996, where he focused on the development of his technique. It was on leaving Newcastle that he began to appreciate the nature of his upbringing; what he had once seen as a concrete jungle now seeming strangely beautiful. Taking inspiration from his childhood, Lambert's pieces have a strong sense of nostalgia, evoking fond memories of youth that many can relate to.
In 2014 he was shortlisted as Best Up and Coming Artist in the prestigious Fine Art Trade Guild Awards, and consequently, his works are hugely sought-after. Limited editions often sell out within weeks, and waiting lists are in place for those hoping to acquire original paintings.
