Artist's Biography
Lee McVey has felt the desire to be an artist since she was five years old. A love of nature instilled by walks in the woods with her grandparents while growing up has inspired Lee to focus on landscape painting for the past several years. She is particularly drawn to the scenery of the northeast, southwest and gardens.
She is a signature member of Pastel Society of America, Plein Air New Mexico, Sierra Pastel Society, and Pastel Painters Society of Cape Cod, and an associate member of American Academy of Women Artists. She is also a member of National Association of Women Artists and Pastel Society of New Mexico. Articles about Lee’s pastel painting have published in International Artist and American Artist magazines. Her work is featured in the books Plein Air New Mexico and How Did You Paint That? 100 Ways to Paint the Landscape. Lee’s work has been displayed in galleries in Arizona, New Mexico, Connecticut and New York and has been accepted into national and regional competitions, winning awards at both levels. Her pastels are held in both corporate and private collections.
