Karen Risby

Suffolk, England
Karen Risby creates contemporary wall hangings and porcelain jewellery. Her work is an extension of her love of drawing, exploring pattern and line using both brushwork and sgraffito, a process that involves scratching back into the painted surface. She takes inspiration from nature, myth and story-telling. Birds are a prominent feature of her work, often interwoven with landscapes and motifs. All of Karen’s work is individually handmade and painted.
