Lee is an internationally acclaimed hand engraver and the winner of many awards from the Firearms Engravers Guild of America and various Collectors organizations. His work has been showcased in national magazines and can be found in private collections around the world.
After one semester of art he returned to the family farm. He is grateful for that one semester and especially the classes taught by Leon Parson. Without time or money to pursue formal art instruction he started the journey of becoming self-taught. A pursuit he continues every day. Along the way he taught engraving for nine years in the United States and six times in Europe. He has been in high demand to help others understand the “art” side of engraving and has authored the book “Art and Design Fundamentals for Engravers, Jewelers, Artists, and Craftsmen. His unique experience and training in values, symbols, and scenes made him the perfect choice for this painting.
