About The Artist
Karen Benioff Friedman attended Golden Gate Atelier in Oakland, California, from 2012-2017. There, she learned the rigorous principles of Realism in drawing and painting, as well as an in-depth knowledge of human anatomy. She paints and draws in her home studio. Post-Covid, she joined Kala Printmaking Collective in Berkeley as an Artist in Residence.
Artist Statement
The human figure has always been my primary source of inspiration. Lately I have been exploring realist portraiture in charcoal, one of my favorite media. I am intrigued by the flow of light and how form and emotion are revealed. Capturing a person’s likeness is simply a delightful pursuit.
