🍂 Meet Karen Golden – The Photographer Who Finds Beauty in the Unseen 📸✨

Karen Golden is a photographer with a unique eye for beauty in the world around us. While many of us admire the stunning fall foliage and sweeping landscapes, Karen has discovered a deeper, quieter beauty in the leaves that are returning to the earth, in varying states of decomposition. Through her lens, these seemingly ordinary, fading leaves become works of art—capturing the intricate textures, delicate patterns, and vibrant colors that tell the story of nature’s cycle. 🍁🌿

Karen’s “Painting Leaves” series is a celebration of transformation—an exploration of how time, weather, and nature’s process shape and redefine beauty. Her photographs invite you to look closely at the subtle intricacies of decay and rebirth, revealing how even the most fragile leaves hold astonishing depth and character.

Karen is a member of Sherman Artists Association and Great Hollow Photographers Club.

This fall, you can experience Karen’s stunning leaf photography at the Sherman JCC during our Open Studios Event Dec 7&8 from 10am-4pm. Don’t miss the chance to explore her unique series and discover how Karen’s work brings out the unexpected beauty of the natural world. 🍂✨
