ART BY KARIN DAWN 


Karin Dawn is a self-taught artist. She grew up surrounded by the vibrant colors of the Caribbean and those colors influence her work greatly. She uses a variety of media for her work. Oil, acrylic, watercolor, pastels and other mixed media items. Her work focuses predominantly on Caribbean culture and scenery but there is also a wide selection of floral paintings.

She was born and raised in Trinidad & Tobago. She has also lived in Jamaica, England, Canada, and is currently residing in Pittsburgh, USA. 

Her work has been displayed in shows and galleries and she has also been commissioned by embassies and art collectors worldwide. She has won many awards, among them a plaque awarded by the New York Times in Tampa for 'Excellence in Art for Women.'

She is retired and spends her days painting in her studio recreating treasured memories of her homeland on canvas. She also paints by commission; so you are welcome to contact her for your favorite scenes, places and paintings of your homes.

Life is never boring for a crafter.
