About Katherine

I graduated from the University of Colorado, Boulder, with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 2002. While in school and since, I have been fortunate to have such incredible artists as Mike Untiedt, Mike Poulsen, Krystii Melaine, and others who have mentored me since my 1st year in college. Their influence and experience have helped shape me into the artist I am today.

I create contemporary fine art that transforms emotion into visual form — bold, layered compositions that invite viewers to experience depth, movement, and meaning. My work explores our society, culture, and spirituality, using texture, color, and abstraction to capture the beauty of human vulnerability and resilience.

Based in Atlanta, Georgia, I specialize in original paintings and mixed-media artworks designed to elevate modern interiors and collectors’ spaces. Every piece is handcrafted and one-of-a-kind, reflecting my belief that art should be both a personal expression and a lasting investment.

My artistic process blends intuitive mark-making with deliberate design. I draw inspiration from nature, memory, my life journey, and the architecture of emotion — translating those influences into sophisticated compositions that resonate on a sensory level. Clients describe my artwork as “transformative centerpieces” that invite the viewer into the conversation in a 2-way, intimate dialogue.

Collectors around the United States and internationally have acquired my work for private collections, luxury residences, and curated exhibitions. Each piece I create is available for direct purchase or commission, typically valued at $5,000 and above, reflecting the craftsmanship, originality, and emotional depth behind every canvas.
