About this artwork
Red and white flowers exuberantly bloom along the edges of pond filled with delicate white waterlilies. Bold colours of red and teal foliage dance against the verdant forest backdrop. In this vibrant burst of nature, I captured the essence of a lush, enchanting garden, brimming with life. Using acrylics, I embraced the freedom of expressionism and the vivid colors of fauvism to evoke joy and wonder. In your home, this painting will be a daily reminder of the rejuvenating spirit of nature, inviting you to pause and bask in its serene yet lively presence. This beautiful work of art is painted a delightful tint of ultramarine along the sides and comes ready to hang.

About the artist
Biography Born in Toronto, Karen Rieger grew up in an artistic environment. Her mother Charlotte was always engaged in creative projects around the home and her father Theodor was a talented artist who received his classical training in Czechoslovakia. In Toronto he had a long and successful career as an art director, an illustrator and in his later years pursued his passion as a fine artist. Although surrounded by this creativity, Karen came late to her artistic pursuits. In her early twenties while studying English Literature at the University of Toronto, she found herself much happier doodling than writing essays. She went on to spend two years studying at “The Art Centre”- Central Technical School’s renowned post-secondary art program, before completing her art education at the Ontario College of Art. Since then she has shown widely in numerous galleries throughout North America Please see the C.V. below for a detailed list of exhibitions. Karen is currently represented by galleries in Canada and the United States. She continues to paint and reside in Toronto where she lives with her husband and fellow artist Chris Carbone
