Karen Carr Studio

Wildlife and natural history artist Karen Carr has displayed her artwork, in both traditional and electronic media, in publications, zoos, museums and parks across the United States, Japan and Europe.

While at The University of Texas at Austin, Karen studied natural sciences and physics in addition to her studies in art. While there, Karen received a prestigious Ford Foundation scholarship in recognition of her illustration and life-drawing skills. Karen completed her baccalaureate studies with a Bachelor's of Fine Arts degree from North Texas State University.
