Sealey has exhibited her paintings in many one-person and group exhibitions across the U.S. including a solo exhibition at the Wally Workman Gallery in Austin, Texas. Her work is represented in numerous public and private collections, including those of First Financial Bank of Texas and the collection of an Emmy-award winning writer from New York. In October, 2007, one of her cityscape paintings was featured in a national art publication, Southwest Art Magazine.

The artist received her BFA from the University of Arizona, a school noted for its outstanding photography program, and her successful art career began with an interest in architectural photography. Her move to painting stemmed from a need to find an even more expressive outlet for her creative vision.

A multi-talented and active artist, Sealey also served as a juror and an exhibition committee member coordinating museum exhibitions, in addition to teaching photography on a university level.

Devon Jackson, writer, Southwest Art Magazine

“Ordinary urban scenes and household objects get transformed into striking abstractions in oil paint by artist Leslie Sealey.”
Jean Claire van Ryzin, the Austin American-Statesman
