"I am drawn to the process. Losing one’s sense of time and place is a welcoming experience. Often works are a reflection of my intimate thoughts and feelings in that moment. Having had extensive classical music training and being a pianist inevitably influences the way I perceive painting.  From the color of the harmonies to the brush strokes of rhythms." - Artist

Artist/Pianist Helen Lee looks to nature and music to find inspiration for her flamboyant abstract paintings. Composition and form in Helen's work are free and flowing, offering fluid shape composites with a bold usage of lines and refined colors. Her highly qualified musical background has an undeniable impact on her paintings as she strives to create visual piece of music. Helen’s creations are ethereal and intensely beautiful.

Helen has exhibited in Singapore, Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, Melbourne in Australia, South Carolina and New York City, Virginia, and Dallas in the USA.  Her works are in private collections in Singapore, Australia, Malaysia, Germany, England, Korea, Taiwan, Philippines, Thailand and USA.

Helen is The First Prize Winner of the United Overseas Bank Painting of the Year 2005 in the Representational Medium Category in Singapore.
​
Since her move to Dallas, Texas in 2017, her pieces have been represented by Bee Street Studio, Dallas, Texas. Helen’s work was also chosen for the Grand Opening of Kyo Gallery in Alexandria, Virginia.

"The paintings exhibit strength in a resolute style of work, with radiant color emerging and dissolving out of equally radiant  ground, and conveying an infinite number of emotions.  One soon discovers that work is not about recognition and definition but about a formidable, un-definable energy that saturates perception with a sublime lyricism.  Excellent work."
