Goat King is a life size bust of a mountain goat. It is made out of recycled timber which is the internal structure of the sculpture, recycled plastic piping, paper, Sculptamold sculpting compound, yarn, lace, paint and resin. The inspiration was a bush walk near Kandos. We hiked high up in the mountain, as we came around a large boulder on a tiny track there was it. A huge magnificent mountain goat, with beautiful long fur. We just stirred each other for a few seconds. Than it turned around and disappeared on the steep, rocky slopes. I find that these European brought animals beautifully adapt to the Australian environment. Even if they considered as pests now, because they compete native species, I just find them stunning. The outback is full of diversity and sometimes it is a manmade diversity. We brought them here for our pleasure with no consideration what they may harm to the natural habitats. Now these animals in the outback such as brumbies, camels, deers, foxes, boars and goats thrive without their natural predators keeping their numbers in check. I admire how these magnificent animals adapt and survive in this wild country.

Karolina was born in Hungary and moved to Australia in her early 20s. She has been creating artworks for as long as she can remember as it has always brought her a sense of calm and release. 9 times out of 10 she will choose oils over acrylics but lately, she has gotten into restoring old surfboards and finishing them off with sprays ranging from psychedelic outer space waves to sexy Japanese geishas. Airbrushing surfboards has been so much fun that she applied airbrush to make create portraits, landscapes and fantasy-visionary artworks . “There is no limit to creativity, only imagination” Karolina’s painting today is heavily influenced by textile, fashion and fibre art. Ornamental elements such as patterns, repeats, stitch-work, mixed media is present in many of her current works. She is a multi-talented artist with a variety of interests that keep her works unique, fresh and visionary. Her inspiration to create comes from an innate urge to experiment and constantly expand her vision. Learning new skills is essential in her process as she incorporates these skills to create the unusual, the authentic, the beautiful. Karolina enjoys painting nudes, landscapes, portraits, animals, abstract on canvas, walls, surfboards, skateboards, basically anything and everything. Her art knows no limit in themes, styles, techniques and expression. She loves creating and the process that comes with it.
