SolitudeQuiet morning on the marsh. Acrylic on Canvas by Karen Roop Size: 24x20 About Karen Roop I am a plein air and studio painter. My plein air sketches often inform my studio pieces. I strive to convey a sense of place in my paintings and always look for patterns of light and dark in a scene. I am a member of ArtsWayland, Concord Art and an elected member of the Academic Artists Association.
