About Kate

Hi, I am an Australian contemporary artist who lives in Melbourne.

My education includes a Bachelor of Education (Arts/Crafts) at Melbourne College of Advanced Education (now Melbourne University), and a Master of Fine Art at Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (R.M.I.T.) University in 2010/11.

I have been exhibiting in galleries and art spaces since 1999. As an entrant into national art awards such as the Archibald, Doug Moran, and Portia Geach Portrait Awards, I have deepened my exploration and love of portraiture. Commissioned work has also been a fulfilling experience that has broadened my expertise. Last year, I completed an art residency at Can Serrat, in El Bruc, Barcelona, shared with many artists from around the world, for a wonderful two months.

Sharing my art knowledge and skills with people of all ages and assisting in giving them a voice, has been a passion of mine, for a long time. I am a qualified, registered art teacher and have had over 30 years experience in many schools and privately in my home studio or other settings.
