Rob Leslie grew up in Wisconsin where hunting is a family tradition. In 1985, he moved to Turnersville, New Jersey and began painting, inspired by his hunting experiences. Ducks Unlimited recognized him as "Artist of the Year" in 1996 for "Just Laying Around"--a painting of green wing teals and black ducks. Rob also won contests for 18 Duck Stamps around the country, including three in New Jersey.
