Painting my way through midlife, chronic illness and neurodivergence.
I have been teaching drawing and painting to adults for 25 years. As well, I sell my paintings in various venues. Most recently, I have added writing (non-fiction) to the creative mix, and currently am excited to be working on an art related book.

“I create images from ink and paint in the forms of etchings, drawings, and paintings. My work is (mostly) representational and typically tells atmospheric stories of landscapes and cityscapes. Art that moves me feels timeless and perhaps a bit secretive. I’m drawn to images in which new interpretations become apparent at subsequent viewings, the way a book takes on new meaning when re-read years later.”
A recipient of the muse. A curiosity filled artist, painter, writer, dreamer. Physical artifacts of my work are available. If you’re into that sort of thing.

Don’t consider myself an artist - just love painting, mark making, printing, collages.
(Kate) is an undisciplined, multi-disciplinary ball of feminine chaos here on purpose. Without an online presence for over seven years, this rested and nourished creatrix has cooked up an unshakable desire to share her art in a spell-binding strategy. Painting, collage, poetry, sewing, spoken word, mind-blowing chapters and music - her fluid nature is helping rewire the divine matrix to the utmost high frequency of LOVE. Enter into a world of synchronicity and magic - K8ball's box is a map of great fates.

“I am a crafter who crochets and embroiders. I am also a painter and sketch artist who brings her sketches to life with paint and sometimes thread.”
I've been a painter for 50 years. My primary medium is acrylic paint because it's versatile enough to use on a variety of bases, including canvas, wood, and glass. I paint expressionistic landscapes and self-portraits as well as abstract expressionism. I also enjoy to participate in live painting events.
