Lesley
Rich is equally skilled painting landscapes, cityscapes and the human form.
Her lavish, impressionistic paintings resonate with color and vivid light. Her
brushwork is loose, yet conveys to us all the essentials to capture the time and
place...the essence of each scene. Lesley
is a world traveler and she brings her paints with her, capturing the people and
places that she visits on her wonderful trips to Italy, France, China, England,
Africa ....and of course here at home in California. A
resident of the San Francisco Bay Area, Lesley is gaining national attention for
her work. She has exhibited widely and has received numerous awards.
