About Karen Collins, Landscape Artist

Currently Series of Paintings

Following on from the last couple of years, I am continued to be inspired by landscapes seen through my travels and past hiking adventures. I combine my passion for painting with travel and hiking and hope to share with you an array of spectacularly beautiful memories of places I have been lucky to have experienced over the years.

me and my painings


"I purchased ‘Looking to Lindesay’ for my wife. The painting captures the beauty of the Scenic Rim and Mount Lindesay under which her family lived for near 100 years. This painting brings the land across three States to our home in Melbourne and will be enjoyed by our family for the rest of our life.
Thanks Karen"
- Chris

I was born and bred in Brisbane, but have also been lucky enough to experience life in London, Sydney and Melbourne. In 2012 I returned to my roots and family in beautiful Brisbane where I contunue to enjoy life and the fabulous tropical weather.

Throughout most of my life, I have collected many images - in my head, in sketches and camera. These provide me with an almost unlimited supply of inspiration with which to create my oil paintings.

As well as painting, I am also the founder and manager of ART ST.Art Studio

I enjoy attending many and varied art workshops as they present themselves. No matter what the class is, there is always something new to learn and tips to pick up and techniques to perfect!

Inspiration for Art

I find inspiration in nature and exploring Australia's wonderful national parks, beaches and wilderness areas. My love of animals often compells me to include them in my paintings.
