Karen Larmeu Stakelum is a native New Orleanian who now lives in Covington, Louisiana. Karen’s art career started in the mid 1980s when she worked as a graphic artist and set designer for a local theater troupe. For many years, she created posters, stage sets, murals and advertising materials for productions of the United Theatre Artists. In the late 1980s, Karen shifted her focus to primarily painting with transparent watercolors on paper and that medium has remained her passion.
