Meet your teacher: Angela LeClair: Artist & Illustrator
A Tennessee native and graduate of the Art Institute of Atlanta, Angi now calls Montrose, Colorado, home, where she enjoys life with her husband and their three dogs. Nature is her sanctuary, and she treasures time spent hiking the trails with her furry companions—reminders to slow down and savor the beauty that surrounds us.
Art has always been Angi’s lifelong passion. She delights in illustrating children’s books and dreams of one day writing and illustrating her own. Angi is an avid learner and relishes sharing new experiences. She believes that life’s challenges feel lighter when we have something joyful to look forward to—and for her, art is that joy. Teaching is especially rewarding, as Angi views art not only as a way to connect and build community, but also as a transformative journey filled with endless possibilities.
