Karen Weiss is a multidisciplinary artist from Dallas, Texas. Her debut picture book, "Firefly Lullaby," is written, illustrated, and designed by Karen.
Weiss is a skilled muralist, jewelry designer, alternative process darkroom artist, face painter, photographer, and henna artist.
The idea for the book was sparked in 2002 when Karen was visiting the Texas Hill County. As an urban dweller, Weiss was captivated by the night creatures' serenade and fireflies' ethereal beauty. This experience inspired her to create the painting 'Firefly Lullaby' in 2003, which eventually evolved into her book, completed in 2023. The book earned the prestigious Kirkus Star.
