5 out of 5 starsI have purchased several watercolor prints, an original watercolor painting, and a custom wedding invitation suite from Karlee. She is incredibly talented and patient, and her work is always beautiful. She turned my vision for our wedding invitations into an even better reality, and worked hard to make sure they turned out perfectly (including handling an inaccuracy with the printing service with ease). I've received countless compliments on her work from friends and family; I highly recommend hiring Karlee for custom projects, as well as purchasing her art for gifts - the recipient is sure to love it!

About hiraethillustrations
Hiraeth (pronounced HEER-eyeth) is a Welsh word with no direct English equivalent. It refers to the deep longing of the soul for a past that it never experienced but feels connected to. It is a homesickness for a world that no longer exists, and perhaps never did. This concept represents so well why I am compelled to make art and why I think everyone needs art. I believe the experience of longing is an essential component of being human.
I first fell in love with creating beautiful images when I was 13 years old and a serious injury kept me bedridden for long periods of time. Ever since, the gift of creating art has been a source of healing and joy in my life. I enjoy many mediums but especially pen and watercolor. I love how spontaneous and playful the watercolor can be but also appreciate the structure and clarity of the lines. Nothing brings me more joy than to paint something that is truly enjoyed by another human being.
