She uses a technique called "layering" that resembles colored pencil.

Wheeler was born in 1955 in Winfield, Kansas, and is the middle of three children.
Her parents were told she would not live beyond a year old.
Wheeler says that she started creating art when she was 5, because she was unable to play outside.
Wheeler attended Santa Ana College before transferring to California State University, Fullerton, where she received a master's degree in art in 1981 with a 4.0 grade point average.
Wheeler has developed a sling-like device that she wears on her arm to assist her with wielding her tools, rather a brush, pencil or pen.
She uses a small brush and very little pigment that creates a dry-brush effect called "layering" that resembles colored pencil.
Each painting that she produces takes from 150 to 500 hours to complete.
Wheeler served on the Board of Directors of Very Special Arts California from 1985 to 1992, and currently serves as an honorary board member.

In April 2012, Wheeler with business partner, William Schnell co-created GoHitYourself.com.
They created the site to educate persons with disabilities on how to better their situations and to illuminate these situations for the able-bodied person.
In 2014, Wheeler and Schnell rebranded and merged GoHitYourself.com with Wheeler's personal site where her amazing art is now profiled alongside her stories about living with a disability.
The rebranded site is located at KarenWheeler.com.
