Verity Blue Studio

“Kathryn’s art continues to inspire me. She captures the emotions of her subjects and is able to bring out the strength and beauty in her paintings, usually leaving me deep in thought and very moved. Kathryn’s true heart is found in her paintings. Her studio is well designed and worth a visit as are her workshops.” ~ Gillian Purkiss

“As our very first workshop of the morning, myself and my peers were super excited to get started but I also sensed some hesitation from the other women, who didn’t think of themselves as artists. Kathryn didn’t pick up a pencil to draw the shape of their faces but somehow a few minutes later we all sat looking at our portraits and I think I heard every person along the way say “wow, I surprise myself!”. Kathryn had all of the steps worked out perfectly and we finished our projects in time. She was quietly supportive, well prepared and it created a wonderful workshop and we laughed a lot. Takeaway: A self portrait and encouragement for me to stray away from the colour palette that I am comfortable with.” ~ L. Fournier (Flirting With the Arts Workshop)
