Karen Munck was trained at Croydon Art School and completed a post graduate fellowship at the School of Advanced Studies in Manchester before embarking on a career as a highly successful international designer.

Painting and illustration has always been part of her life and her sketchbooks accompany her wherever she travels.

She draws her inspiration from the countryside and from natural objects, in nature and in the studio.

During the past 10 years Karen has returned to her original training as a printmaker and has been concentrating on exploring and understanding new and different modern techniques.
