Karen Mooney (sometimes known by her moniker "moongerm") is a Chicago-based artist.
While she explores various avenues of self expression and creativity, she is most recognized for her illustration work and involvement in the Chicago music scene.
Her art is often derived from a persistent need to rationalize and make sense of painful memories, experiences, and traumas. She occasionally draws silly stuff too.
Aside from art, she enjoys sleeping, playing video games, and petting nearby cats and dogs.
