My name is Keren Richter. I am an artist…. an illustrator, painter, art director, set designer, it depends on the day. I like working.
I live in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I briefly studied illustration at Parsons School of Design and graduated from Columbia University with a BA in Art History.
I love collaborating and seeing my work come alive and off the page. Sometimes that means it appears in short animations, fashion editorials, and in wearable art and objects for the home. My art has been published in various magazines and can be found on shirts, sneakers, phone cases, wallets, and skateboards. A list of my clients and past art exhibitions can be found here.
