Jones, Karen
An artist from New England, Karen Jones received her training at the Museum of Fine Arts School, Boston and the Art Institute of Boston. Her love and knowledge of artwork has been passed down through generations of artists in her family.
Jones works in both pastels and acrylics, using wide sweeping brushstrokes to convey a sense of movement within the skies and grasses of her landscapes. Karen’s bold blocks of contrasting colors create dynamic barns with lots of personality. These solid, simple structures paired with flowing, firey grass creates magical scenes to behold. Recently she has been using a palette knife in her acrylic paintings to create a more textured effect on the canvas. Her contemporary paintings of barns have been in great demand.
