Robert Lee-Wade was born in Cambridge, England in 1944. He trained in Fine Arts at Canterbury College of Art and in film making at Newport.

From 1975 to 1995 Robert Lee-Wade was Head of Art at Campbell College, Belfast. After this he took up a full time career in contemporary painting. The Robert Lee-Wade m artist studio is in Northern Ireland where much of Robert Lee-Wade modern art is carefully created and produced.

Robert Lee-Wade paintings feature landscapes and seascapes inspired by locations such as Malta, Jordan, Turkey and Scilly Isles. In his contemporary paintings Robert Lee-Wade tries to capture an atmosphere and reaction of places he has visited. For Lee-Wade it is an attempt to get at the essence of things, something like the Artists of the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist movements, whose imagery was concerned with light, feeling, movement and colour.

Robert Lee-Wade has won many painting awards. These include: Arts Council Travel Award to New York for 1992 Exhibition; The National Self Portrait Collection, Limerick, Ireland (Autumn 1996); and Arts Council Travel Award to Philadelphia for 2002 Exhibition. In 1997 Robert Lee-Wade m was appointed Artist in residence - Eastern Mediterranean, Baltic and Irish Cruises for Voyage of Discovery Cruises. This has enabled Robert to paintings on a “broader canvas” exploring some of the magic and mystery of these ancient and often remote landscapes.

Robert Lee-Wade has exhibited extensively in solo and group art exhibitions in Belfast, Dublin, Sligo, Cumbria, New York and Pennsylvania.

Robert Lee-Wade contemporary paintings are in public art collections including: Allied Irish Bank, Europa Hotel Belfast, Belfast City Council, and Ulster Bank Belfast.
