"I strive to portray metaphoric imagery of those who have resonance and meaning in my life, heroes of biblical proportions and personal heroes." -Karla

Karla Gudeon is a storyteller. She culls her images from her own cultural heritage and family lore. It is through Karla's natural ability to tell a story, her humor and wit, that her work attains its universal appeal. As with the best folk and lyrical art, Karla's work is wholly accessible while encompassing emotional honesty and layers of meaning. Her chosen medium, the limited edition dry-point engraving, allows her work to circulate to an ever widening circle of collectors and admirers. Each print, hand-watercolered in bright, rich hues, remains truly unique. The imagery, interpretations, and stories embodied in these works touch the soul and warm the heart of the observer.
