Algoma’s Tlazo Artist Series Continues with Newquist

On Dec. 19 from 10 am to 2 pm, Caffe Tlazo in Algoma will host local landscape painter Karen Newquist as a part of their Tlazo Artist Series.

From an early age, Newquist was intrigued by drawings and painting. “By the age of six I was very aware that drawing could be a difficult task,” she said. “But the challenge is fun and over the years I have explored drawing, painting, sculpting, [print] making, and ceramics.”

“Kewaunee County provides me with great beauty,” she continued. “I paint from the photographs that I take, working on board with a varied media. I work from drawing to painting, using a layered approach. The paintings are evolving slowly to a greater abstraction.”

Caffe Tlazo is located at 607 4th Street, Highway 42 in Algoma. For more information call 920.487.7240 or visit http://www.caffetlazo.com.
