Karyn Young was born in Montreal, Canada and graduated from Goddard College in 1976. After moving to Kyoto in the early 1980’s, she studied a variety of traditional Japanese arts including calligraphy, papermaking, bingata stencil printing and ikebana (flower arrangement). Despite having returned to California, Young’s current mixed media work combines traditional motifs with modern techniques and is reflective of the 18 years she spent living in Japan. Karyn’s works have been exhibited throughout Japan and in the United States and Canada and are held in the private collections of Hewlett Packard, the Suntory Company, the British Museum in London, Proctor & Gamble and in the Daichi Kyogo Bank.
