Lee Cox

Lee Cox is a contemporary abstract artist based in Carmel, California. After a 35-year career in telecommunications, he transitioned from a lifelong collector of abstract art to a dedicated studio painter. His practice is rooted in memory and impression, with each painting serving as a layered meditation on a moment, emotion, or lived experience. Working primarily in acrylic and collage, Cox approaches the canvas without a fixed plan. He builds depth & texture through an intuitive process of addition and subtraction, guided by memory and music. Music often triggers recollections that shape the composition, and as the work evolves, a specific memory gradually comes into focus.

Lee Cox art celebrates the power of color, form, and emotion. This collection features works that explore imagination, movement, and the unseen world, inviting viewers to experience art beyond representation.



“ For me, painting is a rejuvenating way to unlock memories that have shaped my life. Each work begins in spontaneity – layers of paint, pencil, and music sparking recollections until one memory comes into focus. I’m most fulfilled when my paintings invite viewers to recall and share their own memories. ”
