Karen lives and works in Edinburgh. Particularly influenced by a 1950’s and 1960‘s colour palette and the simplicity of Scandinavian design, her most recent work involves inlaying pattern or simple line details into resin, giving the impression of a continual line and form. Within design she is fascinated by subtle changes in tone, which create harmony, producing jewellery that compliments any occasion.
