Artist Comments
Warm stone buildings and terracotta rooftops rise within the village walls. The scene depicts Saint-Paul-de-Vence in the south of France, where artist Karen d'Angeac Mihm is from. A place she has long returned to with family, time and again. It holds deep personal meaning, celebrated for its picturesque charm and vibrant community of art galleries that continue to inspire her.
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.

Inspired by the lush vineyards of France in the fall, artist Lisa Elley paints an impression of the scene. Light caresses the quaint village during the breathtaking summer. The vineyard flourishes in the foreground, creating a dramatic and colorful effect. She achieves a rich, buttery texture through thick impasto application.
About the Artist
Working almost exclusively with a palette knife, Lisa Elley maneuvers her artistic blade with an uncanny fluidity. Why paint only with the knife? She says, "when I paint with a brush, which I do occasionally, I tend to focus on the detail. With a palette knife I can't focus on the detail too much, so my paintings are looser, and more gestural, with bigger sweeps and strokes." This technique is called wet-on-wet. And it seems to be quite popular, as she has been bestowed the title "Knife Queen" by her facebook fans. Fun fact: Lisa's high school art teacher told her to study harder at math, as a career in art was "impossible."
