Karen Searls (aka tindlebears), military wife and mother, is the owner of Ren Studio located in her 1800 S.F. farmhouse in Ohio. Even though her friends and family assumed she would become an art major as she had always an abundance of creativity, fate dealt Karen a different hand and she decided to pursue Horticulture at Ohio State University instead. However, while her college courses were not art-intensive, art was never far from her and she continued to enrich her artistic skills by trying new media such as computer art. A self-admitted dabbler in all forms of art, Karen continues to work in a variety of media and has an insatiable thirst for all things artistic and this excitement and curiosity is expressed in her work. Check out Karen's bears by clicking on the Artfire Rapidcart above. You can also see her other works at Ren's Studio or on her Blog. Along with being a dedicated Outside the Frame listener and Blockhead Radio chat room attendee, Karen also is a columnist for Handmade News. Thank you Karen for being such a great listener!!
