New Work
Welcome! I’m Karen
I’m Karen Devane (née Graham), a watercolour artist based in beautiful Waterford, Ireland. As a trained nurse and a mum, life is full – of noise, colour, and inspiration! My work is shaped by colours and textures of the natural world around me. I love to work with mixed media such as watercolours, inks and acrylics. Painting at home in my studio is definitely my happy place!
I hope you enjoy my art and maybe find a piece that connects to you and perhaps brings smile to your face!
