Statement

A multi-faceted artist, Karen Feuer-Schwager currently expresses her emotions, experiences and dreams through a neo-expressionistic style.  Whether working on canvas, plexiglas or Polaroid film, her work has a sensual and highly tactile quality that has evolved from techniques developed over a lifetime of making art.

Widely exhibited throughout Southern California, her artistic career began at an early age fostered by her father, a cartoonist.  Moving from the studio to classroom, Karen began teaching art after graduation from Temple University in 1965.  She has taught classes and provided needed instruction to various institutions as an art-therapist and working with learning disabled children.

Currently residing in Laguna Beach, California, she has lived and exhibited in New York, France and Switzerland.

Photographer: Mark Chamberlin,
Mark can photgraph anything and bring out it's best qualities. He is also a very creative artist, and curator. He has been photgraphing my work for at least 20 years. In addition to his talents as a photographer, he charming and easy to work with.
PR/Marketing: LIZ GOLDNER JOURNALIST
Art journalist Liz Goldner has a worthwhile website and blog: http://www.contemporary-art-dialogue.com. She provides more than 80 pages about modern and contemporary art trends, movements and styles, as well as dialogues with Southern California, national and international artists. She likes the National Arts Journalism Program mission that says, "The extent to which journalism is probing or superficial, broadly engaging or exclusive, helps determine the level of public appreciation of the arts."
