Lee Campbell

COMMISSIONS WELCOME

In 1995 I became the first Resident Artist of Kings School Canterbury based in Blackfriars, a 13th century Dominican Priory home to the schools art department. In contrast, I was also commissioned by The University of Kent to paint a mural for the Space Research Unit. Following this, I worked as Resident Artist at Canterbury's Christ Church College, teaching and exhibiting work based on local architecture.

Returning to London in 1997 I became the Resident Artist at St. Saviours Church, Pimlico; working in the cavernous gloom of the empty church where I explored the dramatic play of light upon the rich interior surfaces.

Following a 2 year residency for Westminster Council (on Grosvenor Docks), studying the urban riverside of Pimlico, I moved to historic Eel Pie Island in Twickenham. I have run painting workshops at Tate Britain and also taught painting and drawing at Kingston University.
I currently reside in in the seaside county of East Sussex, UK where I produce artwork as commissions or for local galleries.

My work is held in private collections worldwide.
