Karen in a free-lance artist and has worked in the film, animation, multi-media & print industries.

She is a relative newcomer to illustration (4 years) but draws on a 20-year career as a visual artist. She has a M.F.A. from Concordia University.

As a child, she felt drawn into the fantastic worlds depicted in picture books. It would be a long time later before she would get her first contract with a publisher (Les Éditions Planète Rebelle) to illustrate a children’s book.

Karen has worked with children and young adults as an art teacher. She is currently a
replacement teacher at the Department of Fine arts at Dawson College.

She always loved to draw and paint and sew and macramé and when the computer came along, she enjoyed doing that too.
