Catriona Elisabeth Lesberg
Catriona Elisabeth Lesberg grew up in a family where “the arts” were important. Books, painting, music, and ballet. Catriona’s mother, Mimi, and her sister, Thea (both painters), knew notable artists in Australia during the 20th century.
Her father insisted on a basic business background. So, it was the Julian Ashton Art School and Secretarial College.
During her 20s, Catriona was involved with singing and songwriting, playing music in a band. They recorded on a community folk album. Catriona worked in business with draughtsman and photographer Barry and worked on her art training. This included an online writing course with a children’s writer; animals and pets have always been important.
