Karen Smith Email and Phone Number

Karen Smith – bio I can be inspired by anything that catches my eye from sunrises and sunsets, the sea or shadows and I paint because I want to share these feelings. Once something has grabbed my attention, I tend to paint in series, until I feel I have exhausted the possibilities of interpretation at that time.That is not to say that I will not return to a series should I feel that it could be enlarged upon, perhaps with different interpretation or media. It is by experimentation that we learn.I become more concerned for the environment as I get older and I have been told that this and my textile studies is reflected in my paintings. Having been asked recently what currently concerns me most about the environment I would say the amount of plastic in the sea.I refuse to be categorized as Kandinsky said “there is no must in art, because art is free”.Studied Textiles and Graphics at college.Exhibits with the Cornwall Watercolour Society.www.artbykarensmith.comhttps://www.facebook.com/karensmithartistinresidenceatstclementhttps://www.instagram.com/karen.smith.artist/https://www.cornwallwatercoloursociety.org/our-members/karen-smith/
