Karen Coates is a contemporary painter based in the United States whose work has been shown nationally and in Italy, and has appeared in publications including HOW Magazine. Coates describes her multi-layered process as “StrataLIfe,” focusing on the complex layers of experience that shape individual identity. Working with saturated color and energetic brushwork, she often incorporates symbolic elements such as female figures, mythic creatures, sunflowers, koi, and butterflies. Her paintings center themes of transformation, resilience, and hope, drawing on both personal narrative and shared aspiration.
