Artist Bio
She’s a native Texan who’s lived in Nevada, Oregon, New Orleans and Nashville. Her move to Dallas, a number of years ago, brought her closer to her roots and has afforded her the opportunity to put aside her career in the non-profit world and pursue a long held dream of creating art full-time. In a short amount of time she has become an award winner and a Signature member of Southwestern Watercolor Society.
Art must be in her blood. Her great-grandmother painted flowers and landscapes then her mother painted and drew, and as a child Laura Lee loved art more than any other subject in school! Seeing that passion early-on her parents started her in oil painting lessons in high school. Since then she has taken several workshops, but is mostly self-taught. For over a decade Laura Lee used oils and acrylics as means to create beautiful high-end faux finishes and murals in the Nashville area.
Currently her creative expression is in oils, watercolor and pastel. Laura Lee creates in her studios in Dallas, TX and Colorado when she's not out in the great outdoors painting plein air in locations all over the US, including Hawaii. She belongs to local art associations and recently served on the Board of Southwestern Watercolor Society. Laura Lee feels fortunate to truly enjoy her career. She loves to capture the beauty of everyday life! She wants viewers and collectors to find peace in her work. “We live on an amazing planet. It’s one way God reminds me how much He loves us.”
Her current inspiring artists are Barbara Jaenicke, Jeannie Smith, Kathleen Hudson, Bob Rohm, Phil Starke, Jim Wodark, and Scott Christensen. At present she is studying under notable pastel instructor, Karen Margulis. She is also a fan of “Watercolor Secrets” book by Rachel Wolf. “Learning is a life-long endeavor which makes painting enjoyable and keeps it fresh.”
Laura Lee hopes. you will pause, connect and enjoy beauty as she depicts in layers of color, line and visual texture from the places that have captured her heart.
