Karen Lynn Figurative Paintings

Karen Lynn is a figurative painter now for some years and loves to paint people, fashion, exterior architecture, interesting buildings and flora in landscapes. Her work is inspired by the glamour and appeal of the 40s, 50s and 60s. Lynn’s work has been compared to Hopper and Hockney due to this. Initially training as a fashion designer, Lynn worked as a costumer for the English National Opera before successfully switching into set design. She has worked for many years on several iconic feature films, before moving into television and commercials. In 2001, Lynn turned her attention to painting in oils. Her wide experience of designing for film, television and theatre provides her with a unique and contemporary viewpoint. Her work has been snapped up by collectors in the UK and the US. Lynn’s detailed drawing is complemented by the use of bold strokes, often consisting of colorful and varied characters.
