ART Under the Sun
Karen Sewell

I was raised in Floyd County, Virginia, surrounded by the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. I have had a passion to create all of my life. My surroundings provided the perfect outlet for this need. I paint subjects that touch on my experiences and memories. I draw heavily from the familiar surroundings of the Blue Ridge Mountains. In each painting, I want the viewer to enter the serenity of the environment.

I enjoy working with multiple mediums and any subject matter that whispers to me. Being diverse in my creative process prevents me from becoming stagnant, allowing me to continue to grow as an artist. When looking at my work, I know that through the years I have developed a style that reflects my life, my values, and my passions. My inspiration comes from observing the small vignettes of everyday life. These stories are nostalgic reminders of where we come from and hints of where we're going.
