I recently “met” Lesli when she left the nicest comment on my blog a few weeks ago. I clicked through to find her wonderful blog that I had been missing out on. Lesli is a wife, mom and artist from Charlottesville, Va, who has turned their 130-year-old home into a colorful canvas full of personality.
First, you have to see some of her work (which she also displays throughout her home). She also paints custom pet portraits.
And, if you think her paintings are full of life and color, here are some of my favorite shots of her ever-evolving home:

So beautiful and relaxed.. I am the lucky owner of my own custom pet portrait. She captured my Boston Terrier Beaufort perfectly!
