Mostly MushroomsI love to paint just about anything and after many hikes I decided to direct my attention to the variety of mushrooms along my treks. The more I studied and tried to identify each fungi the more humbled I became with every detail I painted. |

She then met her husband and moved upstate, started a family and happily shifted her art towards farm animals and still life’s. Each year Leslie likes to do a small collection of something out of her usual subjects to help stay fresh and challenged. Last year was birds. This year it’s mushrooms.
