Estate of Fletcher Martin
Doris Lee has been included in many books on "modern art. In 1931, Lee settled in the Woodstock Artist Colony in Woodstock, New York and continued to live there, dividing her time between her studio there and New York's Fourteenth Street. She enjoyed the company of many of the top artists in the country. She was an active member/exhibitor at the Woodstock Art Association where her works are part of the permanent collection. It was in Woodstock where Lee found the inspiration from nature to paint her best works. Before painting a picture, Doris Lee made many quick pencil sketches which she later used as notes in working out paintings. She was known for genre, portraits, landscapes, trains, horses, birds and industrial city scenes. During her life many prestigious institutions exhibited her works including the Whitney Museum; Carnegie Museum, Pittsburgh; NY and San Francisco World's Fairs; Association of American Artists and others. These works often reflected her Midwestern heritage. The naive almost folksy manner in which she painted made her popular among her contemporaries and patrons as well. She was a member of various art related organizations including, An American Group; American Society of Painters; Sculptors and Gravers and the Woodstock Art Association.
