Walking up to the Tulsa home of photographer and mixed media artist Leslie Hoyt, creativity abounds when viewing the flowers and gardens surrounding the front of the home, including a lovely front window that opens the home to the outdoors. I would learn that this front yard is minor compared to the garden found in the back. 

Hoyt and her husband Brad, an internal physician who now serves as Chief Medical Information Officer with Ardent Health Services (the company that owns Hillcrest where he previously practiced in Tulsa) allowing them more travel time together, which you’ll learn has been a goal she has worked toward in her own career moves, have established a designing locale right in their abode, both inside and out, for her to create.
