I’m Karen Louise, an abstract mixed media artist from Perth Australia. I grew up on the south coast of England where I met and married my husband. We emigrated to Perth, Australia in 2006 with a newborn son and our heads full of dreams. We now have 4 boys and our hearts and home are full of love and noise.

My art studio is my sanctuary, my process is peaceful and meditative giving balance to the madness of motherhood. I paint intuitively, guiding my chosen mediums and getting lost in the movements of their unrestrained fluidity to create delicate, soft artworks that bring serenity to their surroundings. 

Drawn to earthy colours, i love to mix the inks to create my own personal hues. Choosing a muted palette enhances the calm of my work, hoping to draw the viewer in to slow down, appreciate the flow and feel a sense of peace.
