Artist statement: “One event had a
major impact on my direction as an
artist. It probably has an influence
on me. The Promise Keepers organi-
zation held an event in Washington,
DC. After attending that event, I
had a chance to visit the National
Gallery of Art, which was having
an exhibit of the late 1800’s painter
Thomas Moran. This introduced me
to the Hudson River School painters,
their spiritual views of the Creation
and has become a whole new level
of painting to seek to strive for.
Since that time, I have concentrated
primarily on the west coast for
subject matter, taking several trips
up through central and northern
California, Washington, Oregon.” —
Lee Munsell.
