CAREN QUINN

I create emotionally resonant oil and acrylic paintings that are rooted in my desire to embrace all facets of life. Whether I'm navigating my response to world events or exploring personal experiences, my paintings examine the nuanced spaces between the emotional responses and rational analyses that we use to understand the world.

My paintings are multi-layered and often created using discarded objects. I present these works to evoke a sense of beauty while feeling into ideas about impermanence. Glazing techniques and a bright color pallet allow the images to float above the ground on which they are created.
