![]() Karen works in several mediums with watercolor being her favorite because of the magical qualities of translucence, and luminosity.
She is listed as a Gallery Artist at SSAC and a Juried Member at CCAA and also teaches watercolor classes at CCAA. Her gallery/studio 'Studio off Main' is located at The Red Barn in Osterville." "The connection between art and nature has always been inspirational. Painting for me is not documenting, but rather capturing a glimpse, and experience that is is quickly gone. I hope to capture the essence of the subject with reflective nuances that evoke a response, or solicit a memory. I thoroughly enjoy working with students that want to explore watercolor and always look forward to presenting the medium as doable, creative and exciting. My course introduces the three methods, and various techniques, including the tools and materials associated with watercolor." |
