Born a Leo July 26, 1972, currently living in Montreal, Quebec
Bachelors degree in Kinesiology from McMaster University, a Reiki Master with Usui Shiki Ryoho tradition.
Jamie grew up in Brantford Ontario Canada, where as a child he began his visionary artistic endeavours by exploring life, rhythm and tempo through various sports of swimming, cycling, running, triathlon and ironman.
Over the years his body became the vehicle to explore the principles of yoga, sacred geometry, science and metaphysics; eventually gaining a Bachelors degree in Kinesiology from McMaster University. The hidden world of occult knowledge, esoteric philosophy and the mysterious parables of life are of profound personal interest and are the gateway to his 'self' exploration.
Currently his yoga teaching draws wisdom from both the Ashtanga and Iyengar systems of asana, while his artistic expression tries to convey the process of change and transformation towards the soul.

Jamie Lee hails from Brantford Ontario, Canada, currently lives and works in Montreal Quebec. As far back as he can remember, Jamie Lee has felt very keenly the irresistible pull of the complex, layered, unfathomable beauty he saw in Nature, and in the human body; early in life, Jamie found that expressing himself through art came easily, and helped him create a deep connexion to the secrets of the Universe. In his own words, he explains that his artistic motivation is "lead, guided and pushed by a desire to paint the human spiritual dilemma; to express on canvas a picture which alters the state of consciousness of the viewer."
After having completed studies in the field of kinesiology, Jamie began a regular and rigorous Yoga practice that was to change his view of the world, and of his art. "Yoga helped me to piece together some of the mysteries and riddles of life, from who we are, where we came from and what exactly we are doing here." Yoga and meditation further opened Jamie’s eyes to the occult, the esoteric, and to ancient cultures who were studying and refining spiritual practices for thousands of years and have shaped the trajectory of all Humanity.
Naturally, this rich field of interests eventually lead him toward the exploration of certain natural psychedelic compounds, the shamanic lore of various cultures, and plant medicines which have been used by human communities through the ages for guidance, support, as well as physical and spiritual healing. As Jamie further explains, his "art is a tool to help others awaken, to connect within and to create a new human paradigm for the future, where art is brought forward as a legitimate and necessary aspect of modern culture."
To this day, Jamie harbours fond memories of all the art teachers who helped him carve and refine his own creative approach and channel his abilities in a productive manner. Through the years, he has found inspiration in the work of artists from such varied aesthetic domains as Vincent Van Gogh (post-Impressionism), Andy Warhol (Pop Art) and Alex Grey (contemporary Psychedelic), who he considers to be "a true visionary".
