Karen Datin

My name is Karen Datin. I am a 40 year resident of Whidbey Island. I have pursued art most of my life but My focus is on Impressionistic Landscape painting. As a young adult, I was encouraged to explore Black and White Photography. Working in the darkroom, I would spend hours perfecting those high contrasts and values. The natural next steps for me were to explore various mediums; oil painting, acrylics, watercolor and pen and ink. I have taken various art classes from local artists, Watercolor, Oils and, Pastels.
