I think you know another artists work is special when you purchase a piece for yourself.
A few years back i walked in to a gallery I didn’t get far passed the front door before I was completely captivated by a group of incredible sculpted angles. As a lover of vintage and long time op-shopaholic, I LOVED all the vintage pieces that Karen Roberts had combined to create her unique angles.
Each one had it’s own sweet personality. They were made up of carefully sculptured little faces and bodies made from all sorts of wonderful treasures that Karen had found in her travels. It was hard to choose just one, but eventually a little angel came home with me.
This was the start of my love affair with Karen’s work, which I love even more now that I know her in person. She has a generosity of spirit and freely shares her knowledge and passion with others. I think Karen is a lot like her art, one of a kind, exuberant, colourful and I am sure she has little wings tucked away somewhere too! I am so happy to have Karen as part of our bohemian tribe!
