Lee Simmons

Picture
​I am a self-taught acrylic painter and printmaker creating visual stories involving nature, our environment, and the roles we play in our society.  

In my practice, I seldom use photographs as prompts.  Instead, I paint abstractly using various mixed media such as paper collage along with the acrylic base.  As I brush on the primary layers, intuition takes over and I am often surprised at both the resulting design and subject matter which I enjoy very much.  Meditation plays a huge role in my art making.

Relief printing by hand is also one of favourites.  I start by carving my design on linoleum and then printing it by rubbing the inked lino in relief style on paper.  

I am a member of the Cowichan Lake Art Council, the Crofton Painters Group and the Printers Only Group in Duncan, B.C.  I welcome your inquiries through webmail at [email protected]
