I create surface design for holidays and everyday. I enjoy collaborating with art directors to create fun illustrations and patterns for products. You can also find my published books and products as Karen Wolcott.
When my mom introduced me to drawing with pastels and the expressive style of Henri deToulouse-Lautrec, it completely rocked my world. I have been filling sketchbooks ever since.
I received a BFA in Visual Communications with an emphasis on Studio Photography from Ohio University. Before starting my own illustration business, I refined my skills as a photo editor and stylist and then graphic designer and art director in Cleveland, Los Angeles and Omaha. I stay inspired with my art supply obsession and hone my craft by continually learning new ways to create digitally and traditionally.
As a commissioned illustrator, I have created illustrations for children’s books, women’s magazines and advertisements. My work can also be seen on garden flags, gift bags and home decor.
I would love to work with you on your next project. If you would like to see existing work available for licensing, I have many collections ready to go.
