I live representationally, but a closer look will reveal an abstract painting which, I must admit, is SO MUCH fun! When I allow myself to be playful with brushstrokes (notice the whimsical placement of tiles on the silo), color choices (see how the blue/green of the ridgeline pushes the barn forward as the star of the show?) and even the simple composition of the ordinary side-of-the-road barn made extraordinary… all because I let go of myself a bit!

 

 

After graduating from The University of Tennessee in Art Education and Fine Arts, Kathie received early recognition for pastel works. But it was 2009 when she found a home in painting oils en plein air.

I call myself a “Nostalgic Impressionist” as a way of identifying the subjects and style of painting that interest me most. No matter which part of America I paint, I am really passionate about plein air and allow myself to get lost in the wonderful process of it all!

Kathie resides with her husband and maintains a studio in the mountains of East Tennessee. She travels extensively exhibiting in fine art shows throughout the nation, teaching workshops and participating in plein air events. Kathie’s original works have sold internationally and she is quite proud of her gallery representation.
