Jody A. Lee is a New York based artist and illustrator, best known for her work in the field of fantasy illustration.
Originally from San Francisco, Lee studied at the Academy of Art College there, majoring in Illustration.
Her work, done in oil on canvas or acrylic or oil on illustration board, often includes decorative motifs incorporated with the representational images, sometimes done with metallic gold or silver paints.
Her images are frequently rendered with a high level of detail and attention to visual texture, which can make an effective contrast against the more graphic decorative elements.
Her web site includes a Portfolio of illustration and a Gallery of paintings, drawings and sketches.
I found the pop-out thumbnail navigation awkward and not conducive to browsing. Fortunately, when in the Portfolio section at least, there is an option under the main images for “Quickreference” which gives access to an easier to browse thumbnail page. Be sure to click on the main images for the larger versions.
There is also a section of Portraits and a page describing her media and methods.
I like her work too. Something precious but not boring.
