Lee White
Lee White's first expressions of artistic creativity were recognized by his grandmother Lizzy when Lee was eight years old. Daily, she set aside time for lee to create. At age 12, he received the Mayor's trophy for Artist's sponsored by the Miami Herald. Lee's formal training began in California where he studied at the California College of Commercial Design. He received a fine arts degree from the California Institute of Arts. During the 1970s and 80s serigraphy became a strong medium for Lee's talent. He had the unique experience of being touched by the famed master of printmaking, Waren Woodward. After relocating to the Southeast, Lee began working with other leading artists and printmakers. The development, evolution, birth and growth of Lee's present style, the compelling power and uniqueness of his range of humanistic insight with which Lee lays down mixed media on each canvas has matured and he has come into his own. His personal journey from Florida, upbringing in Southern California, travelling to exotic islands in the Caribbean, and finally moving to Atlanta have all contributed to an extremely diverse cultural experience from coast to coast. The emotions, color and excitement can be felt in his images. Lee's prolific work, exquisite figures, abstract expressions, still lifes and collages are held in private and corporate collections across the world.
