Hi #PortfolioDay!

I'm Karen, an artist from Germany who works with traditional media - watercolor, ink, soft pastels, acrylic...
For me, inspiration is everywhere, especially in beautiful nature. My favorite subjects are animals - cats, birds, flowers, landscapes and colorful abstracts.

Collage of five of my paintings (clockwise): 1. A small black cat peeks curiously out from behind a group of colorful pumpkins and gourds. The pumpkins come in different shapes, colours and sizes. Only the head and one front paw of the cute kitten behind it can be seen.
2. View from the Top of the Mountain is a hand-painted watercolor painting by artist Karen Kaspar in landscape format. From the mountain summit, the viewer's gaze sweeps over the surrounding mountain ranges of the Bavarian Alps. The tranquil landscape features multiple layers of mountains that gradually fade from rich greens in the foreground to softer blues in the background.
3. A black and white Tuxedo cat stands in front of a dreamy abstract background in various shades of blue and gazes curiously upwards. Soft, loose, abstract brushstrokes create a sense of depth and movement around the cat.
4. Robin in Colors - A European Robin stands amidst splashes of vibrant colors on a plain creamy white background. The bird's bright orange breast contrasts beautifully with its darker feathers. The colours of the plumage are repeated in the splashes of colour in the abstract background.
5. A female sparrow with soft, fluffy plumage sits on a slender branch. The cute little bird is looking to the right. The delicate feathers of the little bird are painted in different shades of brown with loose, soft brushstrokes. The background is painted abstractly in warm brown, purple and earthy tones.

The image features a bright blue sky as the background with a vibrant bird of paradise flower on the left and a small hummingbird perched on the right. The bird of paradise flower has striking orange and blue petals emerging from a sturdy, green stem that curves upwards with a hint of red at its base. The hummingbird, with its iridescent orange and rust-colored plumage, is perched on the tip of the flower’s stem. Its body is petite with a long, slender beak pointed forward.

A South Island Robin. Cute and round forest birds, they're friendly and unafraid of humans, following you along a trail to grab any insects disturbed as you walk by

If I had to choose a favourite bird, it would probably have to be the chickadee...

"Our" crows asking for some morsels.
I observed many times that the larger male asks for food, then flies up to a tree and calls the smaller one to come and eat, often enough everything.
Social birds, caring for each other.

Quiet place, peaceful spot, hidden away in a small grove of trees, do you know what's going on in the world?

"And what world?" you say. "This is the world, our world, and this is what goes on here.

"What goes on in yours?"

Not the flashiest of the new birds I met while in Sri Lanka, but this Asian Brown Flycatcher is a charming little fellow all the same.

Robin in a holly bush is a hand painted watercolour painting in landscape format painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. A robin sits on a branch in a holly bush and looks to the right. It is surrounded by green leaves and red berries. The background is painted with loose brushstrokes in different shades of green, which form a strong colour contrast to the red winter berries of the bush and the red-orange breast feathers of the bird. The Ilex is also called Holly or Christmas Holly. The evergreen branches with the red fruits are often used for Christmas decorations.
The painting is also available in a square format and cropped to portrait format in my shop. Choose for yourself which format fits best in your rooms.
Here I added the text Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year as Christmas card design for your seasonal greetings.

I originally painted the three sparrows as individual paintings.
Here I have put the three paintings together in Photoshop to create a panoramic picture.
Hope you like it!

Three female sparrows with soft, fluffy plumage sit together on a slender branch and have a chat. The two birds on the left are looking to the right, the house sparrow on the far right is looking to the left towards the other two. The delicate feathers of the small songbirds are painted in various shades of brown with loose, gentle brushstrokes. The background is painted abstractly in warm shades of brown, purple, earth and chocolate. The birds appear calm, creating a peaceful composition.
I originally painted the three sparrows as individual paintings, which can also be found in my collection of bird paintings (Sparrow Meeting parts one, two and three).

The Magpie

A bird’s noise is enough to bring back memories of months spent half-trapped because of a magpie.

It tourns it's head a little
and the golden feather line is vissible now

I was in the mood for some soft and dreamy pastel colors, so I painted this little pastel bird. Enjoy!

I was woken this morning by two kookaburras making a racket down the side passage. Turns out their beaks were stuck together (!)

While they scrambled and fought, trying to pull apart, a currawong sat on the fence commentating the life-or-death struggle.

After my sleepy brain had made sense of what the bloody hell was going on, I fetched some gloves and gently prised them apart. They both flew off in high dudgeon.

What a surreal start to the day.

Birds in a Winter Forest is a handmade paper collage by artist Karen Kaspar.
In a snowy winter landscape in soft blue tones, three bright red birds sit on bare branches of tall, slender tree trunks that stand out in dark brown against the light winter background. Large white snowflakes are falling.
The tree trunks and branches were painted on paper with acrylic paint and then mounted as a collage on the watercolor background and combined with the watercolor birds.
The winter picture is minimalist and conveys a calm and peaceful atmosphere.
