My work is a mix of different pictures/images and paints which I combine on the computer and canvas to create a new image. My favorite subject is the female face. Most of the portraits that I create are a mix of four to five different faces, mostly of different races and origins. On my computer, I create a new, non-existing person out of them. Besides creating and building new persons I also take pictures in my studio of models that I use. Together with these pictures and the pictures of old walls, grunge posters and all kinds of other interesting subjects I create a new image. I also use already existing pictures that I manipulate in photoshop and create a new image. When the digital part is ready I print the image and start painting over it. I create thick structures and a lot of layers of paint and gel over them. In this way, I try to make the digital image tangible again. My work is not so much about explanation and concept it is a game and all about the image. I start with no idea in general but by looking at images that interest me and by mixing them, slowly a new image evolves.

For this new series of original works, I took pictures in "Riserva Statale Badia Prataglia" in Italie. the pictures are the base for the painting. I have created a thick layer on the picture with gel mediums and started painting over them. the painting is one of a kind artwork and has a lot of structure and is very detailed. You can almost dive into this forest landscape.

Karin Vermeer is a contemporary Dutch artist who has been living and working in Rotterdam since 2002. Born in Tilburg in 1970, she initially pursued fashion studies before enrolling at the Willem de Kooning Academie in Rotterdam, where she earned her degree in illustration in 1994. After working as a freelance illustrator and decorator for several years, Vermeer transitioned into creating her own independent artworks, focusing on paintings and murals.

Her lifelong fascination with fashion and female portraits stems from her early years spent browsing fashion magazines. This interest evolved into a critical view of the manipulated images of models, which inspired her unique artistic approach—digitally and manually combining photographs. Vermeer specializes in creating portraits by blending multiple images of different individuals to form entirely new, non-existent faces. She also photographs models in her studio and incorporates these images with textures like old walls and grunge posters.

Her process begins with digital manipulation, followed by printing and layering thick structures of paint and gel, adding a tangible quality to her digital creations. For Vermeer, art is a sensory experience, not bound by explanation or concept. Each piece emerges organically as she explores and mixes images that capture her attention.
