Artist Bio: Karen Dignam

 Like most artists, painting is passion for me. I do not have a specific genre or style but I have always been drawn to portraiture.  In 2025 I have won highly commended awards in two different art shows leading to a number of commissions and an ongoing Artist in Residence position in the Barossa Valley.  This opportunity has allowed me to explore many subjects that I might not have attempted and has positively stretched my abilities and skills. My work is leading me to approach the canvas from a different perspective and find further joy from this passion called painting.
