WUFT-FM Thank You Gifts
Leslie Peebles moved to an 80-acre farm in Suwannee County Florida in 1971 from Bergen County in New Jersey. "It was like waking up in heaven." The connection to the land, wildlife, and river continue to inform Ms. Peebles’ work. The long process of drawing, carving, and printing her relief prints is a meditation on her connection with nature, and a way to share her love of the land and its life.
Leslie attended The University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee, and received her B.A. in Studio Art from Tulane University in 1981. She was awarded an M.A. in Art Education from UF in 1994 and taught art for 17 years. Sweetwater Print Cooperative has been her studio since 1998, where printmaking became her primary medium.
Ms. Peebles became a full-time artist in 2009, and she has won numerous awards all over the South. She is currently represented by Gallery Rinard in New Orleans, River's Edge Gallery in Apalachicola, Windhorse Gallery in Beaufort, South Carolina, and Sweetwater Print Cooperative and Sweetwater Picture Framing in Gainesville.
