Karen Sim is a Vancouver Island-based artist and designer whose work has been featured in 13 Canadian and American children’s books to date. A professional violinist and vocalist, Karen rarely works on artwork without music of a dozen different genres filling her small studio. Though she works primarily in digital media, she also uses oil pastel, graphite and ink, and even carves in stone. Karen shares her home with two friendly snakes, a number of struggling houseplants, and her loving husband Andy, a photographer and (luckily) an extraordinary cook.
