• This makes my heart sing!

  • You are passing along your peace in such a beautiful and inspiring way. Your paintings move me.

  • I so love how Kate paints our landscape in New Mexico. She evokes the magical feeling of “here”, which isn’t easy to do.

  • Thank you, thank you for your lovely calendar. Well done and just what  I expected in presentation and quality.  What I wasn’t expecting was how well you captured the light and feeling of NM, and it reminded me of all the years I lived there and how much I miss it. Thank you 🙏🏼

    A big fan,

    Tony

  • Not your average NM landscape! She has a Contemporary take on classic southwestern subject matter, full of a colorful, joyful whimsy. Quirky, whimsical, feminine

  • Your walls will thank you

  • So lovely — a tapestry effect, with such intricate foliage and flowers against desert earth and coyote cliffs.

“The Happy Bird” As I was working on another painting, this happy guy distracted me and demanded my attention until he was finished. I really enjoyed creating all the different textures and details in the plants and flowers on this one!
“Her View” . This is Miss O’Keefe’s view of the Chama River valley from her home and studio in Abiquiu. She made several paintings of this view, each a little more abstract than the last. It means so much to me to be able to v
“Desert Sunrise” . Here’s another painting inspired by the beauty that surrounds me. I’m not up to enjoy glorious sunrises like this very often, but when I am (usually by accident!), it makes me even more grateful to be able t
One of the things that I love about New Mexico is that there are still wild horses to be seen, running free. I saw some this week! I pictured this guy running wild and free on a summer night after the sun went down and the cool night had begun. I hop
