Collage of five of my paintings (clockwise): 1. A small black cat peeks curiously out from behind a group of colorful pumpkins and gourds. The pumpkins come in different shapes, colours and sizes. Only the head and one front paw of the cute kitten behind it can be seen. 2. View from the Top of the Mountain is a hand-painted watercolor painting by artist Karen Kaspar in landscape format. From the mountain summit, the viewer's gaze sweeps over the surrounding mountain ranges of the Bavarian Alps. The tranquil landscape features multiple layers of mountains that gradually fade from rich greens in the foreground to softer blues in the background. 3. A black and white Tuxedo cat stands in front of a dreamy abstract background in various shades of blue and gazes curiously upwards. Soft, loose, abstract brushstrokes create a sense of depth and movement around the cat. 4. Robin in Colors - A European Robin stands amidst splashes of vibrant colors on a plain creamy white background. The bird's bright orange breast contrasts beautifully with its darker feathers. The colours of the plumage are repeated in the splashes of colour in the abstract background. 5. A female sparrow with soft, fluffy plumage sits on a slender branch. The cute little bird is looking to the right. The delicate feathers of the little bird are painted in different shades of brown with loose, soft brushstrokes. The background is painted abstractly in warm brown, purple and earthy tones.

 red leaves Red Maple Leaves is an acrylic painting in portrait format painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. Many leaves from the Japanese maple tree in warm red and orange tones glow in the autumn sun. This artwork, a combination of painting and haiku, is a joint project by Karen Kaspar (© art) and Marjolein Rotsteeg (© Haiku). A haiku is a traditional Japanese poetry form consisting of three lines. Here the acrylic painting was supplemented with the haiku in English. The painting is also available without text (see my collection 'Trees and leaves paintings').

A black and white Tuxedo cat stands in front of a dreamy abstract background in various shades of blue and gazes curiously upwards. Soft, loose, abstract brushstrokes create a sense of depth and movement around the cat. The cat's tail is raised in a curved shape. Happy Tuxedo Cat is an acrylic painting in portrait format hand-painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. Here I have chosen a section of the painting in square format. You can choose the format that best suits your wall.

Robin in the Blue is a watercolor painting in contemporary square format painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. A little robin sits on a branch and looks to the right. The background is abstract in light blue with loose brushstrokes and splashes of colour. The orange-red breast of the little bird stands out as an eye-catcher for the viewer due to the color contrast with the background.

Sweet home is a landscape painting in acrylic painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. The abstracted dream landscape in expressive colours shows a small white house in the middle of a yellow field, perhaps a rape field in spring or a sunflower field in summer or ripe grain in autumn. Above the field stretches a wide sky with dark blue storm clouds. Rays of sunlight illuminate the field and the house. The picture was painted with loose expressive brushstrokes. The colour contrast between the field in bright yellow and orange tones and the sky in dark blue and violet tones emphasises the painting's bright expressive effect.

Eine schwarz-weiße Tuxedo Katze steht vor einem verträumten abstrakten Hintergrund in verschiedenen Blautönen und blickt neugierig nach oben. Weiche lockere, abstrakte Pinselstriche erzeugen ein Gefühl von Tiefe und Bewegung rund um die Katze. Der Schwanz der Katze ist in einer geschwungenen Form erhoben. Glückliche Tuxedo Katze ist ein Acrylgemälde im Hochformat handgemalt von der Künstlerin Karen Kaspar. Hier habe ich einen Ausschnitt des Bildes im quadratischen Format gewählt. Wählen Sie selbst, welches Format am besten bei Ihnen an die Wand passt.

'Watching you' is a detail from my hand painted watercolour painting. In this detail the focus is on the eyes, which scrutinise the viewer intensely.

Watching you is a detail in landscape format from my watercolour painting I am watching you, which I painted in portrait format. In this detail, which only shows the head and part of the owl's upper body, the focus is on the eyes, which scrutinise the viewer intensely. Here is the description of the original in portrait format: I am watching you is a watercolor painting in portrait format painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. An owl is sitting on a branch. It has lowered its head and looks at the viewer with a penetrating gaze from its bright orange eyes. The plumage is painted with loose brushstrokes in shades of blue and brown. The background is white with splashes of colour in the same shades as the owl's feathers.

A female sparrow with soft, fluffy plumage sits on a slender branch. The cute little bird is looking to the right. The delicate feathers of the little bird are painted in different shades of brown with loose, soft brushstrokes. The background is painted abstractly in warm brown, purple and earthy tones. Sparrow meeting part two is an acrylic painting in portrait format hand-painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. This painting is part of my mini-series of three paintings - Sparrow meeting One, Two and Three. Each of these paintings shows a female sparrow sitting on a branch. Each of these pictures can be hung on its own. However, the three paintings can also be perfectly combined into a triptych and hung together on a wall for a joint sparrow meeting.
