Artist Bio:

Hello, my name is Karen Blanquart. I’m a Filipina-American visual artist, illustrator, and designer of small goods living in the Pacific Northwest. I have always had a soft spot for all things 60’s and 70’s that has influenced my current illustrations. I love to tell stories in my work, from capturing dreamlike experiences in nature to exploring what made me who I am through the lens of family and culture. Stories can be the magic catalyst for human connection and a reminder that we can still find wonder in the smallest of things.

Moving from the Midwest to the wonderland of Washington state, I was quickly enamored by the diverse beauty of mushrooms and fungi in the forests that surround me. Mushrooms now have become one of my favorite subjects to draw inspiration from, and it's exciting to see more people studying the environmental and medicinal benefits around the world.

You can keep up with Karen's latest artwork by following her Signs & Wonders Art Goods IG account. And don't miss out on the brick and mortar & online shop she co-owns, Brazen Shop & Studio located in downtown Bellingham, WA (a Sea Witch fav)!
