| After retiring from over 30 years as an educator, Lee decided to pursue her love of drawing and painting. She had taken some art electives while pursuing an education degree and says she can always remember drawing as a child, especially animals, birds, and flowers, however, she needed formal training., so a great adventure began. Since retiring in 2004, she has taken watercolor and pastel workshops and classes from various artists. She took a watercolor class at Queen's College, studied briefly with artist Harris Holt in Charlotte. and a workshop with Susan Crouch. After her sister-in-law introduced her to pastels, she found a medium she really enjoyed. Lee has since studied under Shelley Keefer at CPCC, nationally known pastelists such as Susan Mayfield, Virginia Dauth, Carmella Jarvi, Terry Ludwig, Greg Biolchini from Florida, Margaret Evans, and others. She presently attends classes with Charlotte artist Greg Barnes. Lee says, "I still have so much to learn about the use of color, composition, and more." She enjoys painting landscapes of places she loves, the simple beauty around her, vacations, and more. She also feels privileged to create paintings for other people of their favorite places. " Sharing a moment in time, or the beauty of God's creation is a joy I want to share." |
