Karen is an abstract artist working in acrylic, and cold wax and oil. She currently lives in Markham, Ontario, with my two teenage sons, a cat and two rescued Boston/Pugs. She’s a OCAD graduate and an accomplished Pastry Chef. Actually her two favourite tools for painting are her pastry palette knife and her plastic bowl scraper.
Karens body of work is largely reflective of her many travels and she draws her inspirations from her surroundings, and the dialogue in her head. Each painting is a collection of fragments from my memories of travels, they come together to form a larger story, giving the piece a lively visual environment, where the forms, lines and marks coexist.
