This is a painting from my architectural series of works. I have based this painting on my visits to Nice and have tried to capture the old and the new buildings against a backdrop of the sea and an immense blue sky to give the painting space and a place to breathe in the Nice fresh air.
I have chosen colours to enhance the feeling of warmth and heat against the blue.
This painting is unframed and is painted on a thick edged painted side canvas and is ready to hang.

Karen Lynn is an increasingly collectable figurative artist whose work is inspired by the glamour and appeal of the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s; an era that Christian Dior described as the ‘Golden Age’ of fashion. Stylistically, Lynn’s work has been compared to Hopper and Hockney. Initially training as a fashion designer, Lynn worked as a costumier for the English National Opera before successfully switching into set design, working for many years on a number of iconic feature films, before moving into television and commercials. In 2001, Lynn turned her attentions to painting in oils. Her wide experience of designing for film, television and theatre provides her with a unique and contemporary viewpoint; not surprisingly, her work has been snapped up by collectors both here and in the US. Lynn’s detailed drawing is complemented by the use of bold strokes, often consisting of colourful and varied characters.
