Person
Karen Richardson's watercolour paintings of northern Canadian scenery are authentically inspired by her lifelong exploration of wild places by RV, motorcycle, snowmobile, and kayak. In her paintings, she captures those quiet moments of heartfelt awe and wonder we often feel in Nature. "I hope Watercolour Toolbox will support and inspire many students on their own painting journeys," she says. "I feel honoured to pass on whatever knowledge I can, to make their creative adventures more fulfilling." Visit www.karenrichardson.ca to learn more about Karen's unique artistic life and travels.
