We are excited to announce our next Artist of the month - Lee Shepherd!! Her art will be for sale in the shop during the months of July and August.
Lee is a self taught multidisciplinary artist based here in Athens, Alabama. Though primarily working in water color and oil, she also enjoys acrylics, mixed media, and collage. Lee is primarily a landscape artist often inspired by the bucolic fields and nearby lakes, as well as the delightful ever-changing skys in this charming area.
Lee has displayed and sold her art at High Cotton Arts where she first started teaching a children’s art class. She currently teaches her classes at the Scout House which is sponsored by the Athens Art league, a nonprofit organization that promotes accessible art education and diverse cultural events along with visual and performing arts. Lee has volunteered for the AAL for over 10 years.
Lee had the great privilege of painting half of the Bee mural on the Athens Farmers Market restroom building along with fellow artist Anna Tominack. Lee and Anna have also been painting the Athens children’s room window murals reflecting the summer reading program for five years. Their work can be seen year around at the library. Lee also paints window murals on the Hendrix-Patton Furniture & Appliance store and for Richardson & Deemer Insurance on Washington Street.
Please come by and shop her beautiful art!
