About the author: I am an artmaker, pathfinder, teacher and storyteller. I use whatever materials inspire me to begin my journey. My style is a blend of Folk and Fantasy Art. It is a fusion of what I see everyday, dream and imagine. My paintings evolve over many layers, using paint, marks and intuition to find the soulful, imaginary characters I call my "urban folk." See her artist listing at SOAR!
Karen is a self taught mixed media artist and teacher who began her creative journey as teddy bear and doll artist. She added collage and paint over 10 years ago and is still inspired with the infinite possibilities of combining her favorite materials. Her approach to her art and teaching is: "no mistakes, just dive in and see what happens." Karen art has been published in Somerset Studio, Art Journaling, Art Doll Quarterly. She is a featured artist in Incite: The Best of Mixed Media, Incite: Color Passions and a guest artist in Drawing and Painting Imaginary Animals by Carla Sonheim.
