Leslie Golding Mastroianni has been a friend, mentor and work partner for over 45 years.
Much of my inspiration over that time began with conversations and creative concepts including our name, "SWEET VALLEY ARTISANS".
She is also an accomplished author, poet and collage artist. Her novel "BUYING A YEAR", a story of a young woman's discovery of her artistic talents while uncovering her individuality, has earned praise from published authors including Dame Ruth Rendell.
An M.ed in counseling from West Chester University as well as her decades of counseling and teaching has made her the ideal associate for "Makers Mentor"
