ABOUT THE ARTIST


Kate is a freelance practising artist, designer and dancer based in Bewdley, Worcestershire. As well as working on commissions for paintings, she also works as an artist in residence, in schools and communities.


She works in a variety of media, including paint, textiles, collage, and three-dimensional sculpture, and regularly runs workshops and demonstrations for Arts groups and societies.


She uses colour and composition to express emotion and create atmosphere. The flow of line in her paintings is influenced by her love of dance, which adds poetry and inspiration to her work. Her degree was in theatre set and costume design, and this continues to influence her.


Over the years, she has developed an expressive form of painting, a poetic language with invented symbols and shapes developed from the environment in which she lives. The source of her work is based upon dreams, invented stories and created myths. Her work explores characters placed in different landscapes. These characters are fictional, figurative and abstract.


She exhibits her artwork nationally and locally, and my paintings, prints, cards, and designs are available for purchase directly or at any artist craft fairs or exhibitions she attends.
