Outside

A celebration of the outdoors and love of the Scottish Landscape from the perspective of indoors 2020

An exhibition of fifteen paintings by three Edinburgh based artists Karen Duncan, Kirsten Lawrie and Sarah Kay Wren hosted by Edinburgh palette arts complex.

I have been working with Karen and Kirsten creatively for nearly 20 years.  We meet regularly in our shared studio to make artwork together. The process is collaborative and informed by our shared interests.  Kirsten is very interested in animals and pattern, Karen loves colour and expressive mark making and I like landscape and texture. Working on several pieces at once, artworks develop organically and over time, some paintings can take up to a year to complete.

Favouring mixed media we use acrylic paints, ink, pastels and print techniques on canvas board and paper. Outcomes are personal, lively and multi-layered.

Karen and Kirsten have shown their artwork in several galleries and exhibitions in Edinburgh over the years. This exhibition provides a unique and joyful opportunity for all three of us to exhibit together for the first time.

During this lockdown period we have been meeting virtually for short sessions to complete some new artworks for this exhibition which includes five paintings by each artist.
