Creating original art and gifts in Washington

Whether it's light delicately streaming through a window illuminating the petals of a fresh flower, or a vast dramatic landscape that seems to go on for eternity, I just gotta paint it all!

About Art of Karen Whitworth
When I was a kid it wasn't hard to imagine becoming a professional artist. People always asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, that was my answer! Easy-peasy! Fast forward 20 years and now I know back then I was very fortunate to have a team in place to allow me the space and confidence to believe that if I really wanted to be an artist, why not?! I was oblivious to how much of the "Real World" viewed this decision. My family always encouraged me to go after it. From signing me up for art classes, to finding ways to afford the expensive supplies, and driving me hundreds of miles to competitions, etc. I was completely unaware that this was not the norm. How cool is that!? Due entirely to that heritage, today I find myself running a business that deals entirely in my art. A dream come true!

Production Methods
From travelling the world hunting for unique subjects to include in my original paintings, to researching the perfect envelopes for my wildflower seed line, I am deeply connected to all that happens in my shop. BUT I couldn't run this business alone. Together with my assistants we work hard to create unique and beautiful items that showcase my art. I do the painting, graphic and product design. My mom does a beautiful job to help manufacture our merchandise in her Wasilla, Alaska studio and keeps track of much of the office side of the biz. And Lily, my awesome assistant, helps out around the Carnation, Washington studio. She makes our retail displays by hand, primes the panels that I paint on, helps me list products, even occasionally models for paintings! This is my team and together we are making art!
