Artist Bio:

As a 10-year-old little girl, Leslie Ashton Martel wandered into an art studio, started taking lessons and was instantly transported into the world of creativity.

Leslie had lost her father to leukemia two years earlier, and she discovered that art helped her cope with her feelings and ultimately changed her life.

Leslie majored in interior design at Endicott College and became the first person to create the process of painting on sisal rugs. She founded a design studio and her rugs are displayed in homes and palaces throughout the world.

After selling her studio 13 years ago, Leslie became more actively engaged in watercolor painting. Today, her work encompasses all forms of aqua media with added elements of collage and acrylic.


“I hope my work inspires joy and curiosity when viewers see the lush, vibrant colors of my pallet and the playfulness of my subject matter.”
