Artist Opening Reception for Marcel Anthony (Tony) Lee

I am an abstract artist located in Kettering, Ohio. From a very young age, I was obsessed with drawing and spent every moment practicing my skills. I studied figure drawing in college and graduated with a Fine Arts Degree from the University of South Carolina in 1979. My favorite artists included Monet, Van Gogh, Cezanne, Rembrandt and Frank Frazetta. My medium of choice is acrylic because it’s versatile and fast-drying. I use vivid colors combined with texture and contrast is to create abstracts on canvas. Clouds and nature are my inspiration, but the options are limitless. Abstracts are rewarding because the idea of what I envision changes as I work and it’s always interesting to see how others interpret my art.
