Karen's Story

I paint colourful flower pictures and from these I create my Wild Garden and Wild Collage Collections of prints and cards.

Enjoying time in my own garden inspired me to start painting flowers and tangled greenery. I use vibrant alcohol ink pens with splashes of neat alcohol to disperse the ink.

I work on Yupo paper which has a shiny surface, allowing the inks to flow over the surface rather be absorbed.
