Pavillon de Flore at Sunset, Oil Painting

2025

Artist Comments
The Pavillon de Flore at the Louvre glows in the setting sun, its large windows catching the warm light. Ornate statues add to the building's timeless charm. The painting is inspired by a photograph artist Karen d'Angeac Mihm took during a Paris trip with her daughter.

About the Artist
Artist Karen d'Angeac Mihm creates oil paintings that blend memories of her French upbringing with the serene beauty of the Midwest. "During the summer months, I set up outside and paint en plein air, and in winter, I work in my studio from photo references of recent travels that speak to me," says Karen. Born in Nice, France, she moved to the United States as a teenager and later left a career in corporate finance to stay home with her children. This transition led her to pursue art seriously, eventually studying at the Academy of Fine Art in Denmark, Wisconsin. She paints in her home studio, a bright second-floor space with three windows, high ceilings, and a view of the lake. When not painting, Karen enjoys morning exercise and spending time with her husband, two grown children, and their dog.
