Lesley Smitheringale, the Australian designer behind the brand Ornate Flair, has been a practicing artist and teacher for over 20 years. Her richly detailed works are sprinkled with elements of Folk art and touches of Art Nouveau. Much of Lesley's inspiration comes from the Australian flora and fauna in her garden. She is a graduate of Glasgow School of Art where she specialised in Printed Textiles, gaining a B.A Honours in Design.
