Meet the Maker
Hi, I'm Katherine. Art can be a lifetime learning process as we learn new techniques every day. I love making art because I can express my thoughts and run my imagination. What inspires me to create art is the feeling of accomplishments. I like to create different types of art such as landscape, seascape, encaustic wax paintings, and polymer clay jewelry among others. The paintings are mostly made with acrylic paints; however, I also use watercolors, alcohol inks, pan pastels, oil sticks, and distress oxide sprays. I can run my imagination through mixed media projects. When I work on mixed media, I use ephemera papers, embellishments, clay, resin, dry natural flowers, and artificial flowers. My artwork is done on canvas, canvas panels, wood panels, tags, yupo paper, photo paper, and coasters. Love making art as is always a challenge on each piece that I create.
As a multimedia artist, I have been drawn to create a wide range of art. On some of my artwork, I use modeling paste, dioxide distress sprays, acrylic inks, alcohol inks, gel medium, oil sticks, resin, and pan pastels among others. I enjoy the process of each one of them. I paint and create what I see in my own way. I am interested in expressing basic emotions. My reason for painting is to portray color and form in a nice pleasing way. It is also a way for me to develop my own unique artistic voice. For inspiration, I look at The Modernist tradition, and the concept of emphasizing a material's 'competency', In my case, the flatness of paint and it's saturated pure color. Through these inspirations, I hope that my work in multimedia inspire others.
How it’s Made
Put gesso on canvas. Painted the lady with black acrylic paint. Added papers on the background, used modeling paste to create the background textured, and painted with dioxide sprays. Took semi-gloss paper and added alcohol inks. After it dried, I stamped the paper with butterfly clear stamps with black ink. The cut the butterflies and glued to the canvas by following the shape of the dress. Added additional butterflies like they are coming in and out of the dress. Add a paper flower to her head and rhinestones to her neck to make it look like a diamond necklace.
