Lee Mcintosh

Lee McIntosh is a painter based on the Sunshine Coast, Australia. Working primarily in oil and acrylic, Lee’s practice explores the tension between figuration and abstraction, often allowing faces and forms to emerge from expressive, gestural layers of color. His work is driven by intuition, improvisation, and a fascination with the psychological presence that can arise from raw brushstrokes.

Influenced by both expressionist traditions and contemporary portraiture, Lee creates paintings that feel alive with energy — oscillating between chaos and clarity. Each canvas is an exploration of emotion and atmosphere, inviting viewers to find their own reflection within the fragmented forms.
