Best of the Northwest Art in the Garden talk

Karen Chapman was a delightful presenter at the Best of the Northwest on KOMO 4 Day ~ Her sense of humor and fun was contagious and kept us on the edge of our seats as she potted up a planter while sharing marvelous suggestions on how to create a lovely spectacle of garden art. I have seen so many beautifully created planters, but Karen has a special knack for bringing drama to the pot by incorporating unusually scaled plants with lots of texture and color. Her eye for the fundamental elements of design shone in the large ceramic pot decorated with a gorgeous blown glass piece provided by artist Tracey Vaughn. Karen also discussed how to use art in your garden to create interest, draw visitors into the space and how to use larger pieces to screen your secret gardens for privacy.
What a Gracious Speaker!

Karen is such a great pleasure to work with. She is so thoughtful and generous with her knowledge. Her enthusiasm is contagious!
Designing Garden Memories
Marilyn Pulk from Redmond, WA - 01/16/2012 13:27:21
Karen's beautiful Redmond Garden Club presentation featured "Designing Garden Memories" and what memories they were! She inspired us to craft garden moments throughout our own sites that will make journeys become "aha" moments that continually jog our memories. Artfully created, eloquently spoken and full of design tidbits that provided inspiration to gardeners lusting for a chance to dig in the dead of winter. Karen is a NW garden treasure and we'll have her back again and again to help us create our own club memories!

Karen spoke to our garden club this evening on "Designing Garden Memories." Her power point was filled with carefully selected, detailed photos that were as informative as they were lovely to look at. Her designers' eye and a fun and entertaining delivery style kept us engaged for a solid hour. Very enjoyable! Thank you Karen
