Happy Spring! Thank you for your interest in my work. The Studio is buzzing!

Welcome
Karla Rae Studios
This painting, "Sunflowers", was just completed as part of my Tuscan Color series. It is now showing at the Market Fresh Cafe' in Snohomish. A 24" X 36" Acrylic Painting on a museum gallery board, it is cheerful and inspiring to lighten these winter days. Just click on "gallery" at the top of this page to see more of my latest paintings.
I have also been working on some wonderful fruit and veggie paintings and a few wine bottles featuring our local WA labels. I am also preparing for upcoming shows, which there will be fewer of this year as I transition to more gallery representation and direct studio sales.
You may aquire any of my paintings or prints by calling the studio, or sending me an email. As a professional artist, I enjoy helping you select the right piece of artwork to suit your home or business. Let me paint an original just for you;
commissioned paintings are my specialty.
Give me a call !
