About me

I’m Leslie Wisenbaker, a Texas-based multidisciplinary artist creating original paintings, pyrography, and mixed-media works that tell deeply personal stories through color, texture, and symbolism. What began in 2020 as a way to process change and rediscover joy has grown into a full-time creative practice centered on storytelling, emotion, and the human experience. Every door, rabbit, skull, or bloom in my work holds meaning—each piece becomes a conversation between memory and transformation.

My purpose as an artist is rooted in connection. The moment a client unwraps their artwork—their smile, their tears, their story—is why I love doing this. My art exists to reflect the people who collect it, to honor their milestones, their grief, and their growth. It’s never just about making something beautiful; it’s about creating something that feels alive and deeply personal to the person it belongs to.

Today, my work can be found in homes, offices, and collections across the country. Each piece is a tangible reflection of my belief that art should not only fill a space, but also shift the way we see it—and ourselves. Through every brushstroke and burn mark, I aim to leave behind more than an image. I hope to leave a feeling, a story, and a reminder that transformation is always possible.

I believe art is deeply personal. Most people know right away when something speaks to them — before they have the words for it, and without needing permission from anyone else.
When you spend time with my work, what matters to me is how it lands with you. You don’t need my backstory, my process, or a formal explanation to connect with a piece. Those things matter to me as the artist, but they aren’t a requirement for you as a collector.
I don’t expect you to see what I see. I trust your response, your intuition, and your own experience. If a piece stays with you, if it pulls you back for another look, that’s enough. You’re not missing anything.
I make the work and then let it go. What it becomes for you is where its real life begins.
