Kathy’s interest in animals and the natural world began during childhood weekends spent at the family camp in the Adirondack Mountains. With her parents’ encouragement, she began drawing at the age of five and was entering local shows and winning awards by the time she was in junior high. She graduated from Syracuse University in 1978 with a BFA (Magna cum laude) in Illustration and Selected Studies in Art.

Kathy began painting professionally in 1973 at the age of fifteen, when she was asked to paint several local show horses and ponies. This led to numerous commissioned portraits of hunters, jumpers, Thoroughbreds and Standardbreds, as well as some of the top show dogs in the country. After some twenty years of concentrating almost exclusively on commissioned animal portraiture for clients nationwide, she decided to cut back in order to return to exhibiting her work and exploring new directions.

The artist has exhibited her work throughout the United States, participating in such notable shows as Art of the Animal Kingdom at the Bennington Center for the Arts in Vermont and The Equine Spirit and the Society of Animal Artists’ Art and the Animal at The Wildlife Experience Museum in Parker, Colorado. Her work has also hung in shows at the American Kennel Club Museum of the Dog in St. Louis, Missouri; the International Museum of the Horse in Lexington, Kentucky and the National Sporting Library in Middleburg, Virginia. She also participated in the Masters of Foxhounds of America Centennial Traveling Art Exhibition, organized by Cross Gate Gallery of Lexington, Kentucky.

Kathy’s paintings hang in numerous private collections in the United States, as well as Canada, Venezuela, Japan and England. She is a signature member of the Artists for Conservation and the American Academy of Equine Art.
