painting at TAFE Colleges.
Lesley is currently teaching

the Gold Coast, Queensland.
“I have always loved art since
I was very young and was
always drawing. Silk painting
is one of the most satisfying
and exciting art forms that I
have worked with and I
particularly enjoy the fresh,
jewel-like quality of the
colours and their transparency
when held up to the light,
almost like a stained-glass
window.
I also enjoy photography,
computer graphics, pastel and
graphite drawings and my
inspiration comes from the
abundance of flora and fauna
in Australia and my love of
cats. We have two adorable
cats who ‘own us’ called
Domino and Ginger.
My husband & I feed the native
birds and possums and as a
result, I am very fortunate to
be able to get very close to
the birds and wildlife with my
camera”...
