About this mark
The mark shown above is photographed directly on a piece from the T.Skies gallery. It is the artist's actual stamp, not a recreation: the initials “JJL”, stamped twice, with “STERLING” (transcription: JJL / STERLING). Because Marciella Lee has used this mark since his passing, a JJL piece made in the last 25 years may be her work rather than his.
Additional biographical details have not yet been confirmed.
