About the Artist

Hi! I’m Leslie, the owner of Leslie Kelly Acrylics. 

I hope you enjoy viewing my blossoming passion in acrylics and oils. A little about me, I’m currently based in Holly Springs, North Carolina, living with my wonderful husband and some rescued fur babies (which you’ll often come across in my work!) I have recently retired as a Recruitment Director at Duke and my two grown children are out and about in the world. As an empty- nester, I have more time on my hands, and continue to pursue my painting to see where it leads me. What started out as filling a void, quickly developed into a fulfillment I didn’t even know I needed. You can find a sense of gratification through a paintbrush!

 

I am always working to expand my knowledge and feed my imagination by collaborating with other artists, taking classes, and attending art shows. My inspiration often stems from my travels, nature and animals, though I love a client presenting me with a fresh project!  My work can also be viewed on my website Lesliekellyacylics.com, Facebook, and Instagram.

For inquiries and commissioned art email me at leslie.kelly55@gmail.com

Best to you!

Leslie
