Karen Daigle is a still life artist based in New Brunswick, Canada. Her oil paintings capture the beauty of nature and everyday objects in a modern impressionistic style. Composition design and colour harmony are the foundation for her work as Karen uses her knowledge she has gained designing and illustrating professionally for over 20 years.

“I find beauty in flowers, fruits and the structure of everyday objects. I focus on painting the light, tones, colour and edges. I always paint from life. For me, it’s about reproducing the reality that inspires me without duplicating the set up exactly as seen. I love loose, bold brushstrokes and quite often work with a palette knife to build texture in the paint. Creating movement with design and an atmosphere you can feel is my goal in every painting.”
