Original painting by Karen Smidth. Oil on canvas. Framed by hand in solid pine. Signed by the artist. East Bay, California 38 x 36" New. We discovered Karen Smidth's beautiful oil paintings in a cafe in Mill Valley, California. Each represents a special moment in time, combining observation, memory and imagination. Her inspiration comes from the perpetual mystery of how pigments, surface and light interact with one other. Connected through size and subject matter, her work displays beautifully in groups as well as on their own. Karen grew up in Denmark, but now resides and works in California.
