Alethea "Lee " Leddy has grown up  loving animals and nature since a child living on the east coast so it is only natural that  her  art extends into that realm.  Photography and art  have always been a passion and working on horse farms, being a licensed veterinary technician and wildlife rehabilatator, and  working with marine mammals since the late 70's she has found much of her inspiration through her work.

 

A self taught artist, she enjoys working with various mediums including acrylics, woodburning and especially anything that can be upcycled. Moving to the west coast 6 years ago, she has settled  in as a naturalist aboard  the Port Angeles Whale Watch. Many of her subjects reflect her great love for the environment, especially the marine mammals she has come to know so well.
