Oil Paintings by Dee Lessard
I am a NH based
|
Art and creativity have always been at the core of anything Dee has put her hand to doing! Oil painting has become a time to escape to the place where time stands still. Loving all the challenges that comes with it, she continues to paint while being involved in local and national art groups. Dee resides in Manchester, NH with her husband Guy and their miniature schnauzer, Rosie. She runs and operates a small hair salon there too. Up until recently, she served (for several years) on the Board of the local art group, MAA (Manchester Artists Association) and was also the Gallery Director at East Colony Fine Art in Manchester, NH. Her work can be seen at several local and national online galleries and art shows.
