Karen Laurence-Rowe studied Graphic Design at CapeTown University but dropped out after 2 years. She is now based in Kenya and confeses to being self- taught in Fine Art. Karen prefers to paint in oils and watercolour. Karen has lived in Africa all her life living in areas surrounded by wildlife. She has witnessed the abundant wildlife of Africa diminish – slowly at first, then very quickly! Capturing these beautiful creatures on canvas and paper, has become a bit of an obsession. Karen admits painting mostly images of elephant and big cats. She admits to falling in love with any animal that she is painting at the time! They are all special and have a vital role in the circle of life. She first became aware of DSWF in 2012 and entered Rothschild Mirage – winning it was the most influential event in my career as a wildlife artist. Since then I have donated artworks on occasion. Her greatest achievement was the donation of two large oil on canvases which raised in total £39,000. Karen has entered DSWF Wildllife Artist of the Year 6 times winning Top Prize in “Endangered Category” in 2012 and then winning David Shepherd Personal Choice Award in 2017
