Happy to work on figurative pieces, Lesley finds working on abstract paintings more fulfilling as this allows her the freedom to express herself.
Inspired by Abstract Expressionism, especially the philosophical approach of colorfield painters, Lesley explores themes such as the passage of time, and questions our assumptions and preconceptions or reflects on loss, conveying fleeting and intangible emotions.
Lesley is also developing a series of short run, hand tinted relief prints.

She also has a number of smaller relief prints displayed at the same gallery.
