Two greens divide the canvas. Above, a dark green, calm and almost smooth; below, a brighter green, worked in modelling paste and stone grain, with a relief you can feel just by looking. The line where they meet recalls a horizon, and the small touches of orange scattered across the lower part suggest flowers in a meadow.
The acrylic paint changes tone over the relief: the raised parts catch the light, the hollows stay in shadow, and the work alters over the course of the day. As in all of Karla’s canvases, none of this was drawn beforehand — it was the colours and textures that led the way. The meadow is one possible reading; there may be others.

About Karla
Painting came into my life several years ago. I taught myself, with a little guidance from a painter friend, and gradually discovered the joy of creating through experimenting.
I create freely. Everyone is free to find their own story in what I paint.
Karla
Abstract art is my favourite way of expressing myself. I don’t start with a set idea. I let the colours, shapes and textures lead me. When I paint, I switch off completely from the world around me.
