About The Artwork

Original Oil Painting by Karen Neill Mermaids - Mmmermaids I I painted the mermaids in beautiful Shin Han oils on linen canvas. It took over 6 months to paint, because I used glazing techniques. Ive used the method of glazing. Its an old Flemish technique. Entailing slowly building thin transparent layers of varnish and paint, allowing each layer to dry, building up the colours, contours and shade-giving a lustrous, luminous effect. The transparent layers of the glazes, give depth reflecting layers of light lending 3 D effects. It was a much-practised method of the Masters. I loved every moment painting this - taking over 6 months to paint. Limited Edition Fine Art prints are available. Approx 480 x 360 cm Legendary Sea Goddesses, Mermaids, Sirens and Greek mythology have always fascinated generations gone by. It's said Christopher Columbus saw mermaids in the seas when exploring the Caribbean...and why not?

My work is varied but all connected by nature. I microphotograph science, often liquid crystal DNA - using microscopes and cameras, I paint mainly in oils, subject matter often nature, gratitude, fantasy and science. I forage ethically from nature - to make sculpture. The movement of matter, has long been a fascination, considering it’s rhythm, influences and the nature of its many transcending journeys, often relating to the Fibonacci and Golden Ratio shaping life in our beautiful world. Frequency is a connected interest. Liquid Crystal is a 21st Century essential ingredient for global communication. Delivering fast delivery of internet, sensors, LCD screens, for hospitals and industry sensors. These are all made from liquid crystal but we rarely get to see it, in its raw state. Most of these images here are time lapsed and often in sequence shots, taken with a polarising lens microscope. They're mainly stills from a 4-minute video, available on Vimeo. As I work, I am consistently shining the light of holistic beliefs of intentions and gratitude, into the darkness, revealing the truth but to spread the net of golden light unifying our human consciousness. I have worked as an ‘Art Therapist’ volunteer for a national organisation in Letchworth Hertfordshire, who work with members of the Homeless society and people with various debilitating, addictions. A very important role for me, designing art sessions particularly encompassing and encouraging self care and awareness of divine energy to small precious groups.. Beginning art therapy classes with a group meditation was groundbreaking in bringing the group of strangers together.
