Seonok (Carrie) Lee was born in South Korea and moved to Canada to
expand and develop her artistic aspirations. She received a bachelor of fine arts and a master degree in education for oriental painting. Lee actively participated in the numerous group and solo exhibitions while she worked as a high school fine art teacher and a university lecturer for many years. Her passion for painting has been the biggest inspiration to launch her into the second chapter of her life in her new homeland of Canada, and to help her cope with adaptation to the slower paced life in this country.
Lee’s work focuses exclusively on flowers and nature, which she presents with an attitude of sincerity and contemplation, and in a highly refined and sophisticated style. The unique strength of her work enables her to harmonize the composition, color, ones and shapes effortlessly, and makes the viewers feel as if the life hidden in nature might come out of the plants.
Lee won the 1st prize in the provincial art contest in South Korea and has exhibited her work in South Korea, Japan, China, India, and in Canada. She has continued to pursue her artistic interest through numerous exhibitions in B.C Lower Mainland since 2002. Despite being diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer in 2013, Lee continues to teach at Langley community service society (LCSS) while being treated.
