Piece description from the artist
This gorgeous poppy demanded my attention. I placed it on my barbecue and rolled it to a place in my backyard to change the background lighting to a charcoal, deep black backdrop, giving the poppy a see-through, velvet texture. The result moved me and still does, and it continues to be one of my absolute favorite flower images.
Karen grew up in Colorado amidst the beauty of the Colorado Rockies. This early appreciation of beauty came from her glorious surroundings as well as a Mother who was an award-winning artist.
Karen's creativity brought her to California to study at the Academy of Art in San Francisco where she began her photography career.
She has developed her own style of sharing her world through photographs over several decades. Her love for saving moments in time, has led her to explore peace and tranquility, but also excitement, and chaos. Karen's camera is always with her, no matter where she goes, so her range of what she photographs is not limited to one kind of subjects, instead she shares with you her whole world.
Karen’s photographs have been published in renowned books and magazines such as: Travel and Leisure, National Geographic, and This Is Canada. Her exhibits have included galleries in New York, Denver, Carmel, Jackson Hole, Philadelphia, Tiburon, Sausalito and Napa Valley.
