Welcome to the Official Karine Hyde website.


Inspiration for my paintings comes from places, situations, emotions, people, music, philosophy and literature.  All my works are derived from sketches and drawings, mostly on-site.  I then translate these to canvas using oil or oil and mixed media. 

 

I apply the paint and push it around the canvas using various means to create the desired effect.  Colour and texture are important elements in my practice. 

I believe both are integral to creating mood and atmosphere.
