Ralph Gilles just re-tweeted a bunch of my illustrations, saying they were "incredible".

That makes me very, very happy!

"re-tweeted?" I am guessing that has something to do with the twitters, and that it is a good thing!

I am happy because you are happy!

When somebody with his sense of style thinks highly of your artwork, well, that's what they call a Good Day.

Nice!

Truly, is there a way that interested non-twitterers could see these acclaimed illustrations?

you can search as a non-member. I just did, but it takes a bit of patience.

Ralph Gilles is right, by the way. I WISH I could draw like that. I can "back of an envelope" sketch ok, but anything more is way beyond me.

Have you looked into selling prints? Or do your prints belong to whoever commissioned them?

I completely glossed over "re-tweeted" when I saw Ralph Gilles' name, I suppose.

I used the so complicated method of Googling "Ralph Gillies Twitter" and you'll never guess what I found.

https://twitter.com/RalphGilles

Look for the ones that include "@leadfoodlesley".

Ralph finished with "You are incredibly talented, respect!" - that's great stuff, Lesley. And true of course.

For those who want to see a whole bunch of illustrations of Lesley's, this is linked to her Twitter profile. Don't bother whining about Facebook, just go look at cool car drawings instead.

Nope, you just need to know how to click on links.

Lesley,

What medium is that? Computer? Looks a bit like water color or guache/pen and ink. Did you start with your own photos?

I'm always interested in automotive illustration. Have an Associates in Illustration. Spent most of my college days drawing cars.

Your drawings on Facebook are incredible - I can't believe you're not doing that as a full-time job!
