Karen Bezuidenhout
Karen Bezuidenhout grew up in Stellenbosh, South Africa, a rural area known for its grape vineyards. She spent many afternoons riding horses with her sister and dogs and soaking up the rich colors of the vineyards surrounding their home. Karen's earthy palette - chocolate browns, ochre, olive, deep blues and burnt reds - are drawn from the land that surrounded her and influences much of what she paints today - landscapes, horses, rolling hills and shanty houses.
