HAND PAINTED BY LESLEY

PORTFOLIO

Always being artistic, I completed A level art, then went on to do an apprenticeship in window dressing with The House of Fraser.  After finishing my apprenticeship I spent many years as a display artist, then emigrated to the then Rhodesia, where I became the display manager of a department store.  During this time I had the ability to transfer images, however small, up to any scale freehand.  I was commisioned to paint a Lion King room, and it proved so popular that my painting escalated from there.
Also catering for commercial situations ie restaurants, nurseries, schools and waiting rooms, I work between Cornwall, Zimbabwe and South Africa but am based in Cornwall, UK.
