Leslie Bostrom uses several techniques including painting, printmaking, and drawing. She is currently working on anti-landscapes with incorporation of industrial components.
Currently I am working on a series of large paintings called "Monster Flowers". I've been working on the serendipitous relationships between human and nonhuman for many years. These paintings are more poetic and less planned out than the recent "Bird Disaster Series".
