Karen Cohen
Karen is a contemporary landscape artist working in acrylic, and mixed media. She was born and currently lives in Toronto, Ontario. Karen’s professional life was in health care, as a nurse, and later a social worker.
As an artist with a lifelong passion, I've embraced sketchbooks, pencils, paint, pastels during my travels, and the canvas comes alive when I'm home. Music and photography have also shaped my creative path, instilling in me a deep appreciation for the connections between people, emotions, colors, and the natural surroundings.
Karen has recently started to exhibit her work.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
In my art, I defy conventional urban landscapes, choosing instead to replace city buildings with elements of nature, seamlessly blending humanity with the environment. Each stroke of the brush and every touch of the palette knife or even my own hands adds depth and texture, creating an enthralling dance of colors and movement.
With every artwork I craft, I aim to reflect the personalities and energy of the people I engage with, inviting viewers to be part of these imaginative landscapes. Join me on this artistic adventure as we immerse ourselves in the captivating beauty of interconnectedness and nature's harmonious embrace. Step into my world of art, where textures come alive, colours dance, and emotions intertwine, and let yourself be welcomed into these enchanting creations.
