Leslie Anderson

Born and raised in Guatemala City, Leslie Anderson’s first job was as an elementary school teacher. Moving to Florida in the mid ‘80s to continue her education, she received a BA in Interior Design and an MA in Art Education and Therapy at FSU. Combining her passion for teaching and art, Anderson worked for the public school system as an art teacher for over 29 years. Her experience in interior design, art education and working as a full-time art teacher allowed her to work with various mediums. In recent years, as her two children left home, she found the needed time and space to pursue her art.
