Our Journey
Karma Carriers is where creativity and purpose intertwine to create truly unique pieces of art.
My journey began with a quest for deeper meaning, leading me to return to the lush, green forests of the Great Pacific Northwest of my childhood.
Once immersed in this serene, calming environment of deep forest wilderness, clean air, and tranquil inspiration, I found my mind free to explore and express uninterrupted creativity.
Artist of the Month
An Artist of the Month October 2023 project for Crescent City Art’s inspired a Halloween fantasy we had envisioned about the treatment of cats in the witches' realm.
The Witches Familiar, traditionally represented by black cats, ever present at the witches side, ready to fulfill her every whim.
I wondered, what does the cat think of all this? This thought inspired me to portray life with witchery from the perspective of the captivated, bewitched kitty. The result was at times hilarious, with kittens and cats acting out in mischievous rebellion to their wicked charge.
Embracing the Chaos
As the Witches & Kittens project evolved, an unexpected twist resulted in a whimsical exploration of Bigfoot, an imaginary, mostly terrifying creature, well-known in these woods. The legend of Bigfoot lives in native folk-lore, providing for exciting campfire tales and reinforced through sales of chain-saw art Bigfoot statues, menacing billboards along the highways and reflected on a plethora of products sold to excited and curious tourists and travelers.
I chose to portray Bigfoot as a fun-loving, spiritual guardian of a secretive family, who fiercely protects his family from prying human eyes. The playful nature of this theme reflects fond memories of youthful camping adventures, blending mischief and magic into artistic expression.
Hello Bigfoot Colorbook
These paintings of Bigfoot cavorting with cubs, mocking and mimicking stereotype depictions of hideous creatures culminated in the creation of the "Hello Bigfoot Colorbook," a family-friendly rendition to reflect Bigfoot as a fun-loving member of an extended, yet invisible family.
Thanks to translation software, the Bigfoot Colorbook is available in English, Spanish and Esperanto languages which make these whimsical stories accessible to a wider audience.
