About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist Karen Barton presents a still life of Hershey's cocoa, classic food to be found in a kitchen. "It's a baker's and chef's treasure," says Karen. "Not to mention the hot chocolate you can make with it." This painting holds many memories, each different for every viewer—a definite conversation piece. Karen paints with a brush and a palette knife to exhibit bold colors and subtle textures.
About the Artist
Oil painter Karen Barton creates records of everyday objects through a historical and sentimental lens. With works that feature the ingredients of a PB sandwich or the iconic blue Morton's Salt container, Karen makes a connection through the goods that reach into our homes and possibly to our childhoods. As she explains, "my paintings are of a historical nature. They mostly represent contemporary culture and our current time in history while others are ‘timeless icons.'" Karen collects her subjects at local grocery, hardware, or antique stores where she often attracts curious stares while she intently examines the items. Based in the Pacific Northwest, Karen shares a studio with her artist husband, which she describes as a busy looking place with art supplies and a bright yellow futon with Libby, their beloved studio dog.
