Lee Foran
Born in Baltimore, MD, Lee discovered her love of music and creative expression at an early age. Whether performing, writing songs, or making art, she knew that her passion was in creating.
After performing music for several years, Lee spent the next ten years working as a human resource professional, before staying home to raise her son, Palmer. During those years, she started assisting friends and family with home decorating, eventually venturing out and developing a substantial client base. At the same time, Lee was introduced to mosaics and her love for this unique art form was immediate. Her clients began asking her to mosaic their kitchens, bathrooms, bars, and fireplaces, until Lee stopped decorating and turned full time to the art of mosaic.
As a mixed media artist, Lee works with a wide array of materials she has collected over time. Her portfolio consists of varied styles, although all fall within the category of 2d and 3d mixed media mosaics. Over the years, Lee’s work has become more and more intricate, often with thousands of hand-cut pieces of glass used in each work. Her musical influence is often found in the mosaics she creates and is a favorite of many of her clients.
A love of learning and unquenchable curiosity keeps Lee inspired and constantly refining her techniques. Primarily self-taught, her knowledge and skills have been broadened through her studies with both national and internationally acclaimed mosaic artists.
Lee’s work has graced the front page of Life at the Rocks magazine. She shows at various juried fine art shows and has won several show awards. Lee is a member of Society of American Mosaic Artists (SAMA), Sykesville Paining Club, and Carroll County Arts Council. Lee currently resides in Ellicott City, MD. Her art is available at the HorseSpirit Arts Gallery in Savage, Maryland.
