Hi I'm Kathryn! (You can call me Kat.)

Remember when were young and it felt like anything was possible? Me too! You were so badass.
You couldn't wait to be an adult and change all the rules (or just get drunk and watch the world burn). Good times. Magic, actually; if I could bottle that shit I would be a billionaire. It's sex, drugs, and miracles. It writes the songs that make you cry, overthrows the unjust, and paints your soul. 
Well, you know what? We made it. We're the grown-ups now. Holy shit!
And all the things that mattered then -- they still matter. Adulthood is like a tempering process: into the fire, out of the fire, strong and shining. Or if you prefer, a refining through with bullshit is filtered out, your essence distilled. It's not for beginners, part-timers, or dabblers of any kind. Tom Waits was not built in a day.
I feel more powerful than ever, like I have enough love and rage to big bang another solar system into existence. How about you?
I invite you to join me on this leg of my creative journey. 
I'd love to know where the road finds you, too. Let me know what's on your mind. xo K

Portraiture Exercise: Zorn Palette

I’m feeling pretty accomplished today, as I’ve got the Zorn palette exercise completed for the portraiture workshop that I’ve been doing. I’ve been putting this off for weeks because I just had no idea how long it would take. I really the way the pinks turned out.
The Zorn palette is interesting to me because it incorporates black (every teacher I’ve ever studied with said “never use black”) rather than blue. Zorn was a rebel; I like that. It is red, yellow ochre, black, white. Every colour on the board was made with these.
I got so into this that I forgot to put music on, and so I’ve been listening to the neighbors listen to music while they clean out their van (Slayer, Sabbath, Zeppelin). Must be summer, babybabybabybaby.
