Lucille Leggio has over thirty years experience in the art field as an artist and instructor.  Her talents include Oil Painting, Acrylics, Frescoes, Pastel Painting,  Computer Graphics, Greeting Cards, and Poetry.  Lucille has traveled the Eastern Seaboard teaching, doing large workshops and guest speaking for various organizations. 
    Art is as much a part of her life as breathing. Art is not what she does, as much as who she is, an ARTIST.  Lucille is of Italian Heritage and that rich ancestry has given her a zest for life and the fortitude to overcome challenges, that have astonished most.  After achieving moderate success as a professional freelance fine artist, Lucille incorporated her prowess into her rehabilitation following a pedestrian accident in 1991.  This horrific accident in an instant changed her life, with a traumatic head injury where many areas were affected.   It has taken many years of struggling through therapy to learn to read, write, talk, walk, regain the limited use of her right hand and create her art again.

Her art affiliations are with Southampton Artists Association where she has been the Newsletter Editor and on the Board of Directors, the Artist Alliance of East Hampton, East End Arts Council.   She has also been an Art Consultant for Annual Art Shows and Judge.  Another affiliation is with the well-known organization Pilot International, whose mission is to help those with brain related disorders and disabilities.
