I am Karen. Trained originally as a textile designer for fabric and companion wallpaper, I have moved on to mostly acrylic paintings. My specialty is flowers and trees, however, I am presently doing large abstracts with markers on paper. They are
very colorful, time consuming and intricate. I have had two paintings published recently in an online magazine. I continue to express myself through art and will until I can't paint anymore. Thanks for stopping by.
In this portfolio, you will see my acrylic works of mostly trees and flowers and brightly colored abstract drawings done with professional Blick markers.

Fire-hot, Ice-cold. I actually think this is one of my most intense abstracts, simply because during the process of drawing this one, I was able to feel hot and cold. I love the way it turned out.
Similar to "Fire and Ice", only less intense.
