A Little About Karen

Karen Holt and Tempest Profile

How My Passion Began

Residing on our family farm on the West Pennine moors, I am a passionate horse breeder and owner which has given me an intrinsic love of the natural world that can be observed in my artwork. The exuberant nature of horses with their boundless energy has inspired my painting and my artwork strives to capture their sensitive nature and temperament. The prefix of my own stud is “Tempest”, hence you will notice all of my horse artworks are named likewise

Distinctive Style

My artwork is expressive and evokes passion, movement & colour through my chosen subjects, whether they be horses, natural elements, or urban vistas.

More about Me

Having worked as a textile specialist, I have a keen eye for aesthetics and colour, and many of my works exhibit several decorative effects, which can be appreciated in the original artwork and in high-quality beautiful prints.
