Leslye is a professional photographer and amateur dabbler in drawing. I try to combine the two arts into one. I also have traditional artwork for your viewing pleasure.
 
 
 
I have always been involved in some form of art. Finger painting at age 4 was wild and wonderful and I was one with the paints...what a mess! I have sculped in clay and wood. I have always drawn,with particular emphasis on pastels and colored pencil. I dabbled with oils, but for some reason wasn't too successful....perhaps subconsciously I reverted to age 4. I took up crocheting and soon was sculpting in yarn, twine and string. No boring sweaters for me. Light has special meaning for me and so photography was a natural! I have been very successful in my capturing light with a camera and film. I have lots of my photos on my web page, should you care to visit. I love computers. So now the progression is to my drawing,the computer, and my photos if I can utlilize them into my art.

WOW!!! I love how you blended the photo's and drawing's. They look so real! I wish I could put some up on my wall as posters. That would look so great. You could make a fortune with your drawings.

Hello Leslye, Hillary here...I decided to do this the hard and personal way...I've finally updated my gallery after years and felt it fitting to punish myself by coming personally to inform you of this miracle...hope you'll drop by and take a look at my new pictures and see if I've improved from your last visit!

I’d also like to invite you to join Bifrost, an interactive art community where Elfwooders collaborate on art projects. Visit us at

Thanks.

YOu should try actually painting your own stuff instead of stealing other artist's work. Get a life

Unicorn in Winter was the most beautiful drawing of a unicorn I've ever seen I love it.

:-) Leslye A. Ward replies: "Thank you so much for your kind comment. Thanks to the coward 'Anonymous' above, Unicorn In Winter is to be removed. Said I copied it, I KNOW I didn't but I did use a photograph from a book for visual reference and so the IRB says that means 'copying'. Actually, I'm tired of defending this from narrow-minded people who think they know everything. These same people would have condemed Andy Warhol for his Campbell Soup and Marilyn Monroe images! I should have used a different position and not one that is so common to Andulusian horses. That made my unicorn simuliar to so many others. But my image has been on Elfwood for eight years now and has probably been downloaded and copied by many others. I have sold this image and so should probably have removed it myself before this as it became a 'professional' piece. Again, thank you so much for your comment. Leslye A. Ward"

Why does ERB always remove the one that I want to see first out of all the others? Freaks!!!

:-) Leslye A. Ward replies: "erb said that I copied. I used a photo from an old book as a reference and they said that was copying! So they have spoken and they have removed, it matters not what I say."

Why is it that Elfwood seems to remove genuine art that is actually beautiful and obvioulsy an origional drawing, I am sure you all know what picture I mean, but they allow crap? I won't even start on how many of my stories have been removed from my library for simple reasons. But unicorn in winter was absoultly brill and now it is gone8
