 Harding describes her painting as “abstract botanical art”. She said realistic botanical art is intriguing, but it wasn’t working for her, so she decided to loosen up for a more abstract effect. Harding has earned international acclaim for her watercolors and several of her works are part of the permanent collection in Rockford’s sister city, Borgholm, Sweden. She also won rave reviews for her 2012 one-woman show, “Regarding Flowers” at the Swedish-American Museum in Chicago. Karen Harding’s bright, vibrant works will be on display at the Beloit Art Center
throughout the month of December, and they will also be available for sale. The Art Center will be open Mondays 10-2, Tuesdays – Fridays, 10-5 and Saturdays 10-3 until Christmas. |
