Lesley is a well known artist living in Kloof, KZN. As well as painting in oils and drawing in various mediums she draws on ceramics. She exhibits widely in South Africa, and has works in private collections around the world. She has recently sold works over the Internet to Hong Kong and the Netherlands.

Lesley has been drawing with Jeanette Gilks for over 10 years, specialising in figure drawings using charcoal, graphite and pastel. She also paints with Maggie Strachan, focussing mainly on translating her drawings into oil paint using her fingers instead of the usual brushes.

She will present an exhibition at the artSeen Café in Kloof during April.
