Goldsboro, NC
Hello. I'm Karin Thompson-an avid lover and creator. I grew up in Eastern NC with frequent trips to Florence to visit family. My childhood was spent running freely, sailing on the Pamlico and riding horses all day. Art classes and camps filled our heads with ideas. After college, jobs, and volunteer work focused in the Arts I'm finally getting the chance to become a full-time studio artist at the age of 60.
I mainly paint, work in clay and make jewelry. I feel my art is my therapy and having pieces sell is an added benefit. I've been lucky enough to build a regional following but will working towards expanding that reach. I miss the days of Arts and Craft fairs. I loved talking to shoppers and seeing their faces when they find a piece that speaks to them. I think that's why Artfields is so appealing. I love that the town becomes a huge gallery.
I've been told " I don't think like most people" and I've come to cherish that as the ultimate compliment.
