Lee Evans is a fine artist born and raised in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, where the industrial landscape and surrounding countryside have shaped both his life and his work.
Growing up in the Potteries, Lee worked in the potbanks during the 1980s to early 2000s, an experience that left a lasting impression on his appreciation for craft, material, and place. The discipline and pride of Staffordshire’s working heritage continue to influence his approach to painting today.
His work focuses on atmospheric landscapes, capturing quiet moments within the Staffordshire countryside. Using oil paint, Lee explores light, depth, and memory — often favouring subdued palettes and layered textures that echo both the land and its industrial past.
Each painting reflects a personal connection to place, shaped by a lifetime spent in the region. Rooted in Staffordshire, Lee’s work is a tribute to the landscapes that have surrounded him and the heritage he remains deeply proud of.
All artworks are original oil paintings inspired by the landscapes of Stafforshire.
