Karen Ramsay

Ms. Ramsay's devotion to plein air painting began at the age of eight. Growing up in Colorado and making frequent visits to rural Montana inspired her love of nature and appreciation for painting on location. Her skilled renditions of scenes from the sporting life as well as of her favorite haunts in Yellowstone and the Colorado Rockies have become highly sought after.

A graduate of the Colorado Instutute of Art, Ms. Ramsay takes weekly painting trips into Rocky Mountain National Park and to study at the Loveland Academy of Fine Art, where she explores portraiture and life drawing. She has studied with notable painters Charles Reid, Burton Silverman, and Eric Weingardt. In June of 2000, she won a Best of Show award at Chaparral's Masters in Montana invitional, and her work was featured in a two person show at Chaparral in November of 2000.
