Karen Klucowicz
(b. Toronto, Canada | Lives in Grimsby, Ontario | Works in Hamilton, Ontario)

Karen Klucowicz is a Canadian visual artist known for her bold, concept-driven figurative paintings that explore vulnerability, resilience, and emotional honesty. Working primarily in oils and acrylics, her work is distinguished by strong composition, rich symbolism, and a deeply personal narrative voice—appealing to collectors who seek meaningful, emotionally resonant contemporary art.

Klucowicz began her career in interior design before returning to her first love: painting. She studied at the Ontario College of Art & Design, but it was a pivotal life shift in 2016 that led her to commit fully to her fine art practice. Drawing from personal experiences of loss, healing, and renewal, her artwork transforms private reflection into universal themes.

Her intuitive process involves journaling, meditation, and sketching—allowing her paintings to evolve naturally as meditations on relationship, identity, and human connection. The result is a body of work that feels emotionally raw yet visually refined, often described by collectors as romantic, intimate, and powerfully expressive.

Klucowicz has exhibited widely across Southern Ontario, with notable presentations at The Mann Gallery, St. Catharines City Hall, the Orillia Museum of Art & History, and OCADU. She was represented by Raven Art Gallery from 2018–2020, and her work is held in private collections across Canada, the U.S., and Europe. In addition to her studio practice, she facilitates creative workshops and art-based team building programs, furthering her mission to use art as a tool for connection.

As her practice continues to evolve, Karen Klucowicz remains committed to creating work that speaks to the complexities of emotion, the strength in softness, and the healing potential of creative expression.
