Karen graduated from the Glasgow School of Art in 1983 with a BA
(Hons) in Graphic Design. After working for a short time as a
designer in Glasgow, she moved to Aberdeen with her husband and
young family.
After some years of being at home with the children, Karen
ventured back into the art world gradually. Using soft pastels to
create images of the local landscapes around Aberdeenshire and
taking part in the North East Open Studios. From that springboard
she now exhibits in a few of the local galleries.
Karen’s current paintings, in oil and acrylic on board and canvas,
feature a variety of subjects including still life, landscape and more
recently, semi abstract. With a love of the vibrant colour and detail
in nature, Karen hopes to engage the viewer to further explore into
the shapes and patterns in her work which incorporates a sense of
the influence of her design background.
