The Dark Oriental Art Of Tim Lee

Tim Lee studied Fine Arts at Leeds Metropolitan University and currently lives & works in the UK.
“I hope people can see beauty in the simplicity of my acts; that they can admire my attempt to decorate and celebrate what it is to be human”
For me, its refreshing to see the ancient culture of China being used in a contemporary artistic sense, because it's normally the Japanese traditions & aesthetics that are exploited by creatives the world over. China has a wealth of beautiful iconography to draw inspiration from and I am glad that someone is doing it well.....
