The works in this series offer a source of therapy to the artist, they are intricate and painstakingly slow to create. Colourful and vibrant, these works make a great feature in any home. From the artist : "The shape, form and the repetition are used as a veneer over the chaotic layers of paint below, an overlay covering an abstract landscape, evoking in an emotive response to the restrictions and control." This new body of work evolved during lockdowns, with so much time available in the studio, and often in response to being confined my attention became narrowed and focused to my immediate surroundings. The dried native flowers in my studio were a source of inspiration thus this focus became concentrated and narrowed onto the minute aspects of the banksia flowers and the protea flowers, which had featured in my impressionist still life works. The shape of the brush strokes emulate the shape of these tiny flowers. These flowers are made up from an abundance of tiny flowers, they really caught my imagination, and after a series of experiments the inclusion of these beautiful shapes in my work have led to these mesmerizing works, which are indeed the antithesis of my still life native flower paintings. This work is currently being framed in oak, and will be available for despatch in 7days time ( 7th September)

Australia
Having lived in the UK, South Africa, and now in Australia, preserving elements of her life and experiences is paramount in her work. Compositionally diverse artist she often seeks to capture a symbolism in her work, drawing on her experiences living in these very different countries. Calling on the connection she has with South Africa and Australia, Karen Goddard’s abstracts and floral artworks are deeply influenced by the botanicals and environmental facets familiar to both. Her still life depictions encapsulate the innate shapes and exuberance of her organic subjects, while her mark making abstractions embody their unique and specific colourations. Previously living through times of national turmoil and transformation, her works persistently focus on the beauty of her natural surroundings, and deliver an emotive and meditative quality that arouses captivation and peace. Favouring an impressionistic creative approach, Karen alternates between oils and acrylics in order to produce diverse compositional elements, imagery and texturizations. She typically begins by depositing a ground colour onto the canvas, which habitually determines the ethos of the work. Layering the complimentary colours in stages, which are individually mixed through a meticulously process, each of the darker shades are typically set down first, while lighter colours are introduced later. A pattern of short and repetitive brushstrokes are utilised in the creation of her abstracts, which produces an overlay over the existing colour work, and instigates the qualities of movement and flow.
