He shares the view of most en plein air painters in that he believes he has the best teacher of all in nature itself: "I paint directly from nature and my painting is my personal and immediate response to being submerged in the atmosphere. My continued learning to see colour has been a revelation and has opened my eyes to the beauty that surrounds us, even in the mundane" ’On the Rother’ , as winner of the Red Rag Gallery Award, is representative of Karl’s broader body of expressive art work, in this case capturing the unhurried flow of the river in a gentle palette. Karl’s work will feature at Red Rag gallery later this year. 11 March 2010 - Affordable Art Fair The Affordable Art Fair returns to Battersea Park on 11-14 March 2010, where over a 100 art galleries will be showing an array of contemporary art with values up to £3,000.
