Karen Shear art & design

b i o g r a p h y

" mixing shapes from the external,
with colours of the internal,
Karen's works evoke the sublime moment "

After graduating in Computer Science & Commerce, Karen left South Africa and moved to Sydney where she now works as a web/graphic designer. She recently completed Cert IV in Colour and Design.

Karen is a self-taught artist, and has been painting for the last 6 years. Her work is inspired by the shape and contours of the human form, as much as the landscapes found in her travels - from the plains of Kenya... to the rooftops of Paris and the sunsets of Western Australia.
