About the Artist

Dagmar Karell was born in Hradec Králové. She studied Literature and the English language at the Faculty of Arts at Charles University in Prague and at the University of British Columbia in Canada.

D. Karell lives in the Czech Republic and has lived in Canada, Israel and Great Britain. While in Canada she worked as a reporter for CBC - Radio Canada International.

The inspiration for her paintings came from her travels through the USA, Mexico, Hawaii, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore. The natural beauty of the Pacific coast of Canada and the native Indian Haida art of the west coast of British Columbia had the strongest impact on her work. Robert Genn, a well respected and famous artist, influenced by the „Group of Seven“, instructed D. Karell in her abstract style.

D. Karell's artworks are in private and public collections in Canada, USA, Japan and Europe.

She has been a member of the Professional Association of Visual Artists since 2016.
