Catch The Sky, by Karen Welsh: three canvases of open fields under a pale sky, hung side by side — Catch The Sky

Karen Welsh · paintings

Contemporary abstract landscapes inspired by memory, atmosphere, and the feeling of open space.

Working primarily in acrylic, she develops abstracted compositions that exist between representation and memory, capturing the essence of a place rather than a literal depiction.

Artist statement

"Drawing from the landscapes of Wiltshire, my practice explores the intersection between abstraction and geography. Working in acrylics and charcoal, I use bold colour and contrasting lights and darks. I use layers and form to reimagine the familiar terrain around me."
