A bit more
about Leek.

Welcome to Paint Be Leek’n! I’m Malik Jones, also known as LeekTheArtist. I’m a 25-year-old artist and digital entrepreneur Born in Chicago Illinois raised in North Omaha, Nebraska. My journey as an artist began unexpectedly while serving in the United States Marine Corps, where I picked up a paintbrush and discovered my passion for creating portraits and large-scale works. In just under five years, I’ve honed my craft, creating impactful artwork ranging from portraits of historical figures like Martin Luther King Jr, Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali & Michael Jackson to custom designs for businesses looking to elevate their brand.
I offer a range of services, including custom portraits on canvas in sizes from the standard 20x24 inches to large-scale pieces over 48x60 inches. I also take on mural projects, with pricing and details negotiable depending on the scope and intricacy. For businesses, I’ve created unique pebble portraits—custom, high-end artworks made from pebbles or gravel that serve as a prestigious, eye-catching way for brands to stand out. These pebble business logos not only showcase a company’s status but also help bring positive attention to the business.
For those looking for more elite, luxurious artwork, I specialize in creating pebble/gravel portraits with prices ranging from $100K to $750K, depending on size, detail, and materials. These intricate pieces are perfect for clients who seek one-of-a-kind art that makes a bold statement.
As a digital entrepreneur, I’ve learned to work with a wide range of payment options, including cash, checks, stocks, and even cryptocurrency. For larger projects, I do require a 10% upfront payment to cover materials, as well as travel and accommodation expenses if needed.
In addition to my artistic endeavors, I’m passionate about giving back. A portion of every project I complete goes to local and nationwide charities—because I believe in using my work to make a positive impact on the world.
Whether you’re looking for a portrait that captures your story or a bespoke piece that elevates your business, I’m here to bring your vision to life with creativity, professionalism, and a commitment to excellence.
Thank you for supporting my journey. I look forward to collaborating with you!
