Atlanta Antique Gallery - Karen Schwartz

Karen Schwartz is an Atlanta artist, represented by the Atlanta Antique Gallery. Karen's mixed media portraits on both paper & canvas of personally known and cultural figures are up close character studies, that create a psychological impact with a distinive use of line and color. Schwartz's experience as a clinical psychologist practicing psychotherapy for 20 years reflects an enduring passion and respect for personal idiosyncrasy that characterizes her portrait work. Her trust in what "eyes and hand will tell you about my subjects" embodies a risk that pays off in works of honesty and boldness.
