The artist

I am delighted to introduce myself, Karen Elsu Bjarnadóttir, and share a little bit about myself. I was raised in the lovely town of Húsavík, Iceland. Although my professional background is in psychology, with no formal education in the arts, my passion for creating art has been and will be a lifelong pursuit.

I find myself particularly captivated by artwork where fun use of color and expression is used. Expressionism resonates deeply with me, and I strive to convey this freedom and emotion in my own artwork.

Throughout my artistic journey, I have explored various mediums. I started with graphite and charcoal, dabbled in watercolor, and recently immersed myself in the vibrant world of oil painting. Each medium offers its own unique challenges and rewards, and I relish the opportunity to continually learn and evolve as an artist as well as a person.
