Lawrence W. Lee

Lawrence W. Lee was born in Ft. Smith, Arkansas
in 1947 and now resides in Arizona. He received
a BFA in 1969 and an MA in Art Education in
1970, both from Northern Arizona University. He
has lived in Arizona since 1957 and also has a
home in Belize.

He has been an educator, teaching fine art
and art history, as well as philosophy. This
combination can be seen in the pensive and
wise faces of his subjects. Although he worked
in various media and subject matter, he is
known for his solitary and incredibly strong
Indians, painted in vibrant acrylics that reflect
the colors of the desert sunset. Lawrence's use
of fetishes and swirling, turbulent clouds evoke a
sense of magic and mystery. The unusually
weathered and expressive faces give a hint of
the spiritual strength and integrity of these
ancient people.

Lee been the owner and president of the Cirrus
Arts Corporation since 1979 and also owns four
web businesses, including two featuring
products from Belize. His children's book The
Mirror, which he wrote and illustrated, was
published in 1989 by Harbinger House and is
now sold through one of Lee's websites.

He is a member of Friends of Western Art and
the Society of Southwestern Authors and was
chairman of the Congressional Fine Arts
Competition Committee from 1986 to 1989. He is
in the 23rd Edition of Who's Who in the West.

"I can create my own reality, populate the world
with my own beings and stretch the imagination.
My paintings are confrontational, not
comfortable. They require viewer participation.
You have to imagine what it might be out there
that gives a character such a countenance.
What is he responding to? What is the nature
of the abyss into which he gazes?"
