"Wild Fruit Tree in Morning Light" By Karen Mason

Karen Mason expresses a unique contemporary flair in her botanical and bird paintings through the combination of bold lines and luminous atmosphere. The translucent atmospheric effect Mason achieves in her oil and resin/acrylic paintings is influenced by her earlier study of watercolor washes and glazing techniques in painting Italian and California landscapes. The painting is mixed media ink, graphite, composite metal leaf, acrylic, and resin on board in a floating frame. The piece measures 7" x 7".
