Lesley D McKenzie

Lesley has lived in the Aberdeen area all her life. Originally a graphic designer, she worked in the oil industry until deciding to 'go it alone' in 1996. Since then Lesley has developed an enthusiastic fan base, who love her quirky animal ceramics and joyful animal portraits. Lesley says, "As a child I would often study anatomy books, working out the muscles on any animal compared to the human and could sketch many animals from memory. I still employ this method today. It's a spontaneous way of working that suits my personality."
