Transcendence

After two decades as a
mortgage banker, New Orleanian
Karen Cauvin Eustis
today is a figurative sculptor.
Inspired and fortified by a sense of personal journey, Karen says her artistic efforts are in celebration, testimonials to her gratitude for life
and its gifts. This sculpture is the medium for
the artist's reverence of life and growth.
