Karen McPhail-Bell, PhD
Artist working across Painting • Drawing • Mixed Media
Karen is a visual artist whose vibrantly layered mixed-media paintings explore connection to place, identity and social narratives. Drawing on a background in public health and anthropology, she sees the link between creativity and wellbeing as both intuitive and evidence-based. Her work is held in private collections across the U.S.A. and Australia, and featured in publications including La Raíz Magazine. She has exhibited locally and internationally.
