Lee Price

Art Appreciation

Lee Price is an American figurative artist who paints top view nude self-portraits of herself with "forbidden" foods like ice cream and cupcakes in intimate and private settings.

I came across Lemon Meringue, while thumbing through The Essential Guide, a fine arts guide. The realistic oil painting showed a nude woman enjoying a lemon meringue while bathing. Needlesstosay, this intrigued me to know more about Lee Price.

A 2011 interview of the artist provided me an insightful look at Lee Price. You can read the interview HERE, and view more of her wonderful work HERE.
