One-Stroke Certified Artist

Being a former interior decorator for Fowler Brothers in Chattanooga,
Tennessee and a Family and Consumer Science teacher for over 18 years, I
have always dabbled in crafting and home decor. Once I learned to
paint, an entire new world of creativity opened its doors to me.
Encouraged by my family, friends, and especially my husband Gary, I made the
decision to offer my creations to the public. All of my wood products are
hand-crafted and, of course, all products are hand-painted. Therefore,
each one is unique and one-of-a-kind.

Taking great pride in my work, I am
never satisfied until each product is perfect in detail and
craftsmanship. After all, my name is on every piece!
Over the past four years, I have participated as a vendor in
several crafting events throughout Georgia. For the past
three years, I have designed and produced unfinished wood
products which are available for sale in the Online Store.
Within the last year I have created many new painting designs,
some of which are now available in painting packets. Being
passionate about my craft, I look forward to many years of
painting, designing, and sharing my love of painting with
others.
I hope you will enjoy browsing through my website and Online
Store. It is an honor and a pleasure to present my work
for your consideration.Leigh Russell
