McKinney, Texas --
Lee's often humorous, satirical style of painting has been termed "Black Americana." She names Will Smith, Bill Cosby and Eddie Murphy as just a few of her notable collectors.
Lee has been painting for over 60 years and with her first show in Chicago that sold out in 2 hours to single paintings selling for as much as $20,000, Lee is a true treasure in today's art world. Lee has been living and painting in Texas for the last 6 years and now intends to return to Las Vegas where she once owned a 10,000 square foot art gallery.
"Mentor, art world navigator, savvy entrepreneur, advisor, humorist, neighbor and friend are just a few words that come to mind when I think of Annie," Moore says. Moore states she has certainly enjoyed Lee's time in North Texas and feels honored to know and to have painted alongside Lee.
The exhibition "Annie Lee: A Texas Farewell" is but a small outpouring of our well wishes towards Lee and her new endeavors. Come out on opening night and help give Lee a Texas-sized sendoff. "Annie Lee: A Texas Farewell" opens on Saturday, February 11th from 7-10pm at Laura Moore Fine Art Studios, 107 S Tennessee in historic downtown McKinney. The exhibition will be on display through March 7th. Gallery Hours: Mon-Sat 1-5pm, 2nd Saturday 1-10pm, or by appointment. Free admission. 214.914.3630. www.lauramooreart.com
