Karen Parker Moeller is an award-winning illustrator and fine artist. Her approach begins with a sense of wonder and deep love for the created order of nature. Derived from a host of sources—original drawings, paintings, and her own photographs—Karen’s mixed media approach brings together colors, textures and patterns in an exuberant celebration of the natural beauty found in Creation.

In 2020 Karen Parker Moeller along with her husband, Chas Moeller, launched 620 Deep, LLC with an eye toward the Michigan tourism market. In 2021, the Peninsula Paradise series made its debut and it was so well received that in 2023 they brought Karen’s playful designs to a national audience, capturing the unique qualities of special destinations across the country.

A graduate of the University of Michigan Stamps School of Art & Design, Karen’s early career encompassed various creative roles at GM Photographic, Quorum, Signa Design, and as Senior Art Designer at Unisys. Multiple recognitions and awards began to accumulate.

In 2002 she and her husband, Chas, launched their own boutique design firm, Karen Moeller Design, delivering a full range of design services (illustration, graphic design and fine art) to a wide array of institutional, corporate and non-profit clients. moedesign.com

In 2013-2015, she entered ArtPrize and in 2014 made it into the Top 100, for a eight-foot by five-foot oil painting named “KaBoom.” This painting is now hanging in the lobby of St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Ann Arbor. See the painting on our moedesign site.

Karen and Chas live in Northport, Michigan along beautiful Grand Traverse Bay, 620 feet at its deepest.
