BIO

Kate is an acrylic artist living in the tiny coastal town of Morehead City, North Carolina. When she's not in her studio, she is chasing after my two wild toddlers—professional crab hunters and ocean splash experts—usually alongside her husband, who keeps them all laughing.Kate's art leans toward calm, peaceful scenes. Painting is her way of slowing things down, soaking in the beauty around her, and sharing a little pocket of peace with anyone who needs it.
