Mrs Lefferts accompanied her husband n many fly fishing trips and it was then that she discovered the natural beauty of and her inspiration from wildflowers. Her husband would fly fish in the stream and Mrs Lefferts would set up her paints and begin sketching whatever was in bloom at the time.

The artist, her husband Mark, three teenage boys, and the familyâs English setter, Buddy, live in Sandy Hook.
