Karen in Art Galleries & Artists of the South



My wife Karen is one of the featured artists in the current issue of Art Galleries & Artists of the South magazine. Her work was discovered at the John Collette gallery in Highlands, North Carolina. Paintings presented in the article are currently available at the previously mentioned John Collette space, and also in Atlanta at Twinhouse Gallery on Peachtree Road.



I know that I'm biased, but I have to say that Karen is an amazing artist. And it's not only because her finished paintings are beautiful. But, because she lives for art. She is always (well most of the time anyway) either painting, talking to someone about painting, setting up her interior shots, cropping photos, writing down ideas for future paintings in her notebook, reading about art, on her way to the art supply store, or visiting a new gallery either on foot, or online. Her enthusiasm is almost overwhelming. I'm inspired by it. If you're not already aware of her work you can see for yourself at karenhollingsworth.com.

Karen's paintings are beautiful with or without the bias!
