  Art has been an integral part of my life since I could appreciate the wonder of seeing. Although I primarily work as an enamelist and oil painter, I create in a variety of media because there are so many ways to express God’s gift of sight, color, and texture. 

Having earned my teaching credentials for all grade levels, I taught high school art for 25 years and tutored all ages. I love sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm of art with others. Because my husband served in the military, I have been privileged to live and exhibit around the world, and to have shown and sold in exhibits almost yearly for the past 44 years.

During the time I was teaching art I lost the sight in my left eye, partial vision in my right, and my world changed forever. A few years later, I suffered a grievous injury which severely limited my mobility. Although permanently visually impaired and physically limited, I am learning to work through the frustration of taking longer to create my work. People always ask artists how long it takes to create a particular piece, and I once heard an artist answer: “It took all of my life.” Truly, each piece of art I create is a culmination of a lifetime of my experience, my training, my knowledge, and my intuition, but above all, it is a gift and a blessing from the true Creator. 

Thank you for visiting.

   To try to capture a moment or a mood and put it on canvas or paper, metal or clay—whatever best suits the image I am trying to convey—is a journey in and of itself.

     Art is a creative expression of life, and I want to continue expressing mine as long as possible. I also want to keep sharing my love and knowledge of art and its vision.  Since I’ve retired as an art teacher,  I have continued to teach private and community classes. Please take time to view some of my work, and feel free to contact me with questions.

    Art has a voice, and it speaks to each of us in a unique way. Sometimes it is a quiet whisper, gently urging the viewer for a closer look, and sometimes it is loud and insistent.

    Art has a voice, and it speaks to each of us in a unique way. Sometimes it is a quiet whisper, gently urging the viewer for a closer look, and sometimes it is loud and insistent. Many artists become comfortable with one voice and one form of expression, but I find that art is like music. There are moments when I feel the need for a soothing, gentle melody. 

But then there are those times when I want to “rock out” and express myself with a bold, high energy.

Therefore, some of my images have completely different styles; although many are restricted by the consignment work I do 

or constrained by the type 

of media I use.

    I have the capacity to help you express your own artistic voice: either through teaching you or by creating the art for you.  I am willing to work hard to make sure you are satisfied with the result.

I am located in Vacaville, CA, 

but am more than happy to work with you at a distance. 

 Please feel free to contact me.  

Thank you.  ~Karalee Norris, Artist
