Art Discovery with Leslie Primo
Fine Art Lecturer, Author & BroadcasterEver been to an art gallery and wondered around looking at paintings wondering what on earth they could possibly be all about? Ever felt ill equipped and overwhelmed by the sheer volume of work on display?

But where do you find such a person that can unlock all the secrets of your favourite paintings? Well your troubles are over. Leslie Primo.
