She primarily uses oil paints as her medium due to their luminosity and vibrancy. Karin is an expressive artist who evokes emotion through the use of bright, bold and often non-realistic colours.
The use of colours in this way allows an alternative reading of a painting. She is interested in how colour contributes to the overall dynamism of an artwork. By working on a theme and examining a subject in detail Karin is able to direct the viewer’s attention to otherwise unnoticed aspects. Karin has always been interested in learning new techniques and incorporating these into her work.
