Hey! I'm Celeste (she/her)

I’m the artist and owner behind Lesty Illustrates—a proudly AuDHD and disabled-led small business based in Perth, Western Australia.

The journey to starting Lesty Illustrates was anything but linear. Navigating life with disability and the realities of mental health has shaped not just how I live, but how I create. Art became my escape - a place to carve out joy when life felt too heavy.

Since launching, my business has grown in ways I never imagined. I’ve had my products stocked in retail and hospitality spaces across Perth, and expanded my range to include creations I once doubted I could ever offer. Every product I make is infused with lived experience, a bit of chaos, and a whole lot of heart.

Lesty Illustrates is more than just a shop - it’s a space where all are welcome...

...and I’m so glad you’re here.
