Welcome

Please come and enjoy the original paintings of Karin Urquhart.  Karin is a resident of Fairfax, CA. For many years, she had a summer place at Lake Almanor, CA, where she enjoyed the beauty of the mountains and the Lake Almanor basin. She is an award winning artist specializing in oils, acrylics and watercolors.  Her paintings are included in galleries and private collections both here and abroad. She is a member of the Marin Society of Artists where several of her paintings have been displayed and sold in juried exhibitions.

An hiatus from her painting occurred during a distinguished career of public service in the field of environmental conservation for which she has received many honors including induction into the Marin Women's Hall of Fame, the American Association of University Women's "Woman of Achievement Award", Senator Barbara Boxer's "Women Making  History Award" and inclusion in the Marquis "Who's Who in America" and "Who's Who in American Women".
