Hughie Lee-Smith (September 20, 1915 - February 23, 1999) was an American artist and teacher whose surreal paintings often featured distant figures under vast skies and desolate urban settings.Lee-Smith was born in Eustis, Florida to Luther and Alice Williams Smith; in art school he changed his last name to sound more distinguished. Shortly after his birth, Lee's parents divorced and his mother moved to Cleveland to pursue a career in music. As a child, Lee-Smith moved to Atlanta to live with his grandmother, where the carnivals he attended would later provide images for his art. At age 10 he moved to Cleveland with his mother and grandmother (once his mother established her musical career), and attended classes at the Cleveland Museum of Art, and later the Cleveland Institute of Art and Polytechnic Institute.
