Karl Stern

Art House 32
Address: 71 Promenade
Open: 6/7 and 13/14 September, 10am-6pm
Also open by appointment (8th – 12th September)

Karl will be showing his colourful, paintings/collographic work of people and landscapes. They reflect humour or mood. He’ll be exhibiting framed and mounted works plus his hundreds of gift card designs.

Karl’s abstract but representative images are full of colour. His practice includes oil and acrylic canvas paintings but the bulk of his work is on card and drawn by knife and painted using shellac and pigments. He uses this work as a printing plate and the printing process itself creates prints as well as finishing the painting with line and tone. Karl is interested in form and its relationship with its surroundings whether figurative, buildings or landscape. Some figures are imaginative, others drawn of friends and models. His landscapes demonstrate a certain mood reflecting wherever they are painted. Karl is looking to create more abstract work representing more spiritual forms linking people plants/animals and their connections alongside his existing practice. Inspired by serious health issues this past 2 years (thankfully well now) and the loss of his aged mother he is intending to produce new work using Shamanic art.
