Karina is a landscape artist living and working in Dorset. She creates atmospheric and expansive landscapes that explore the transience of light in nature. The subtle shifts of colour and tone in her work seek to capture the emotion of a still, quiet moment. Karina works with a limited palette in each painting, gradually building layers of oil paint until a luminescence of colour and an internal glow is reached. Karina’s work is influenced by the American tonalists, where subtle shifts in tonal value and the harmonious blending of colour create softly-edged and atmospheric landscapes that evoke a deep, emotional response. Through her painting, Karina aspires to share with the viewer a moment of connection, stillness and peace.
