From an early age Karen could always be found sketching and colouring in. Not much has changed. In 2006, Karen qualified with a BTEC Foundation Degree in Design and has returned to her love of illustration. Most recently she has had children's illustrations published for the Islington Museum and has just finished working on illustrations for a children's book published in September 2014 which can be previewed and ordered on Blurb! Karen lives in London with her husband and three children.
