“Second Beach” by Michael Kareken 2018
Unique | Watercolor Monoprint | 23.75 x 32 | 28 1/4 x 36
Davidson Galleries in Seattle, Washington will host an exhibition of Highpoint Editions Artist Michael Kareken’s watercolor monotypes. This exhibition includes a selection from Kareken’s 20 black and white watercolor monotypes created in 2018 with Highpoint Editions. The series explores the Pacific Northwest landscape where Kareken grew up. Each print is a reminder of a location which holds special meaning to the artist, many of them taking on a subjective point of view, looking up or down, as a way to suggest a “child’s-eye” sense of scale or perspective. Michael adds “As a child I was overwhelmed by the drama of this landscape - its scale and ever-shifting quality of light and atmosphere made a tremendous impression on me. Those early experiences remain vivid in my imagination.”
