Leigh Alfredson, also know as The Chalk Teacher on YouTube, Facebook and Instragarm, is a professional street painter living in the Orlando, Florida area and has been street painting and teaching this art form for over 26 years. Her company VIBRANCY DESIGN provides professional street painting services, as well as street painting festival consulting services. Leigh has traveled all over the United States, Curacao, and Italy to paint, and helps organizations and non-profits hold street painting events as fund-raisers, or as an added aspect to an already established event. Leigh teaches street painting (LEARNTOSTREETPAINT.com) all over the country, in the schools, as well as teaching art groups (kids or adults), or individuals one-on-one. LEIGH ALSO TEACHES ALL AREAS OF FINE ART IN-PERSON OR VIA ZOOM: Alfredson Academy of Art.
Leigh grew up in Madison, WI where she attended art school and earned a degree in Graphic Design. After graduation, Leigh worked in ad agencies, graphics studios, and printing companies before opening her own design studio in 1990. In 1994 Leigh was introduced to street painting when she agreed to participate in the Rotary Orlando 1st Annual Street Painting Festival, although somewhat reluctant since she received a “D” in pastels in her college media class!
Leigh’s style is graphic/realism, and she loves to do portraits, animals, or reproductions of Masters works such as Michelangelo, Caravaggio, and Bouguereau. Leigh has produced over 450 street paintings and produces street paintings and pastel drawings for some of the major Orlando area attractions.
