"Painful Passion" by Karen James 


"Our March exhibition encompasses passion, life and colour layered with deep meaning and laced throughout with painful association and memories. Everything culminates in a journey on which we are invited to accompany Karen James as she charts the highs and lows of becoming an artist, discovering that there is no gain without pain.

Karen was born in Gloucester and trained at Cheltenham in design and embroidery. A member of Gloucester Artists’ Network (GANet), she now works with textiles and colour, creating scarves, fashion accessories, wall hangings and mobiles for individuals who admire fine craftsmanship and originality.

Her most high-profile fan is John Travolta, for whom she created a Hairspray scarf."
