Karen Weihs
Artist’s Statement
Karen Weihs’ oil paintings dazzles the eye with a series of 2020 paintings showcasing the conjunction of light and color revealing her impression of reality.
”2020 was the year we needed to create our own light. Tornasol is a Spanish term without an exact English equivalent, refers to the shimmering or glow quality that I use to shape my interest in landscape works. Tornasol inspires me to use the very nature of color to express how our eyes process the reflected light to imbue my subjects with a shimmering of sunlight."
