On the Cover: Beach Read by Karen Hollingsworth
Karen Hollingsworth is known for her dreamlike arrangements of subject matter. Through the artist’s careful selection her subjects “speak” to one another, and to the viewer, in unique and unusual ways. In many of her painted interior spaces, she includes open windows that act as portals into an imagined world. The Zen-like quality of her “Windowscapes” extends to her animal paintings. The animals exist in a moment of peaceful equilibrium. Hollingsworth allows us to share in a moment of revelation. More about the artist on her website: www.karenhollingsworth.com
