Art for Life
A lifelong traveller and nature lover, Kari Herbert is inspired by the beauty of wild and expansive places. As the daughter of a polar explorer, Kari is used to living on the fringes of things and, every year, guides intrepid guests to experience the Arctic in a mindful and respectful way.
Her artworks are evocative responses to her countryside home of Cornwall and the remote Far North. Rich layers of colour and texture together with intuitive mark-making suggest rugged coastline, wild tundra, soaring mountains, restless ocean edges and dramatic tors and moors, but also a deeper connection with the spirit of place. Her mixed media, semi-abstract paintings provide any space with a feeling of connection, possibility, wonder and peace.
ARTIST STATEMENT:
"Drawing and painting in the landscape gives you an intense feeling of being alive. There's nothing quite like it for bringing you into the present moment.
"My artworks are an embodied, visceral expression of what I can only describe as a conversation with a place and the elements. They reflect both a deep witnessing and receiving of a moment in time, as well as a playful exploration and intuitive response with a dance of marks and paint. My palette changes with the seasons, or the feeling I want to express. Each painting goes on its own journey of exploration and becomes a presence in its own right.
"These artworks offer a visual reminder to keep our eyes open to life; to say 'yes' to possibility, and to take a moment to breathe deeply, slow down and appreciate the little things that uplift and transport us. Then we begin to naturally flow with life and connect with a deeper and more lasting sense of peace."

"I bought a series of 3 oil paintings in June 2024. Kari has really captured the feel and warmth with her use of light and colours. I love looking at them as they allow me to feel free and hopeful - I get lost in the scenes and I can almost feel the sea breeze! Kari's customer care is amazing and I can't recommend her highly enough." - Lisa Mullarkey

"I saw one of Kari's paintings a few months ago and simply had to buy it. There is such tenderness and delicacy in her paintings, but there's also an underlying sense of the ever-changing nature of things. She captures moments in time so beautifully. I find her work utterly intriguing." PL

“I just bought one of Kari’s new original paintings. It’s just so beautiful. The dark
and stormy Cornish beach, with a glimpse of warm light, shows Kari’s skill and understanding in creating a dramatic sense of light and shade along with depth and a wonderful shape of movement...My family and I love this piece. Thank you Kari for the joy you’ve brought to our home and for reminding me of the love and yearning I have for Cornwall.” JW
