Marti Higgins - The personal yet universal languages of color, repetition and shape are my inspiration to create. By carefully coordinating these languages I hope to provoke emotions that are not easily expressed in spoken word. I find balance and comfort in the chaos and believe my art touches on the human and my own need for visual excitement balanced with stable and grounding rhythms. 
My techniques include experimenting with the relativity of color and shape and how they influence each other by proximity. I expose color relationships in a layer and reveal method providing peeks in glimmers and slices. Layering these elements shape relationships and solidify the composition. I find my way through my process with improvisation rather than visualizing a finished product.
My artwork consists of impressionistic landscapes and abstractions.  I am always inspired by the sense of disorder, yet perfect organization found in the organic. The balance is always there.

I’m Karen Koch, an artist in Hudson, Ohio. Inspired by nature and nostalgia for days gone by, I use modern and vintage papers, book pages, and paint with stitching and buttons to create colorful art, rich in texture and meaning. 
Background I studied studio art and majored in drawing at Denison University. After graduating, I worked at art galleries and continued painting for several years. Eventually, I took a corporate job and painted less and less as the job kept me busier and busier. Then, for more than a decade, I did not paint at all. I started painting again in 2005, first in abstract acrylics. Several years later I began add elements of collage. My current work incorporates stitching as a way to add line detail. Thread, yarn, and stitching are also a nod to evenings spent embroidering with my mom and my job as a seamstress in college. Found objects, grandmother’s buttons, plastic wrappers, maps, and old book pages all find their way into my work. Maps especially are loaded with associations of childhood road trips and the promise of grand adventures. If something stands still long enough, it WILL get glued onto artwork!
The results are colorful artworks rich in surface texture and personal associations.
