Karen Thomas is acclaimed for her pop-culture figures and loosely dynamic painting style. While her infamous superhero collections reconstruct well-known characters’ identities with wild expressionism, her postcard collectibles

transpose celebrities into small, but utterly enigmatic portraits. In doing so, Karen Thomas has created a distinguished style, recognisable for its thick and vivacious brushstrokes.

 

She has shown both individually and in group exhibitions at The Other Art Fair (London, Brooklyn, Los Angeles, Chicago) Art Below (London, New Orleans, Los Angeles), Her work has also been included in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, featured on the culture show and identified by Rebecca Wilson, Chief Curator at Saatchi as a ‘must-see’ artist.
