Lee primarily paints landscapes in a variety of styles. His formal art education began over 40 years ago at the age of 17 when he studied Fine Art at the Dundas Valley School of Art, Arts & Graphic Design at both George Brown and Sheridan College. Lee travels throughout Ontario during the four seasons to create plein air paintings and to take photographs. He then brings the reference images back to his studio to create a larger painting to complete his vision. During the painting process, Lee listens to music and selects only one band exclusively, so they inform the painting as he creates it. "Every painting is completed this way. This process also informs the titles of the work because all of my paintings are titled with a lyric from the band that influenced the piece during its creation, and even quite a few paintings are named by the musicians themselves." Lee is a proud member of The Society of Canadian Artists, The Federation of Canadian Artists and The Ontario Society of Artists. A number of his paintings have been exhibited across Canada, the U.S.A., and Europe.
