Hi, I'm Katie.
I make original watercolor artwork that celebrates the beauty right outside your door.
My artistic journey...
Flower Focus
I love the beauty in a single blossom.
Often the tiniest details--a shadow, a drop of water, a spot of unexpected color--can become the entire focus.
Nature's Palette
A leaf is seldom just green. A white petal is never only white. Treasure abounds on the sidewalk. Discover what your eyes may be missing.
Follow me on Instagram to see some of my inspiration and works in process.
It started with a childhood dream to "be an artist". It grew when I spent my teens working at an Ohio greenhouse. It paused when I spent 20 years in corporate America. And it all came together when I sought meaning.
Flowers have held meaning for people for thousands of years. My journey in search of meaning started with a book club of encouraging friends and a cheap set of watercolors. Hundreds of flowers later, I've learned that watercolor and gardening have a lot in common.
Plan, prepare, work, and wait. With some patience...and some practice...beauty and meaning are wherever you look.
